===Evolution=== [[Crown group|Crown]] coleoids (the common ancestor of octopuses and squid) diverged in the late [[Paleozoic]] ([[Mississippian (geology)|Mississippian]]), according to fossils of ''[[Syllipsimopodi]]'', an early relative of vampire squids and octopuses.<ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Whalen |first1=Christopher D. |last2=Landman |first2=Neil H. |date=2022-03-08 |title=Fossil coleoid cephalopod from the Mississippian Bear Gulch Lagerstätte sheds light on early vampyropod evolution |journal=Nature Communications |language=en |volume=13 |issue=1 |page=1107 |doi=10.1038/s41467-022-28333-5 |pmid=35260548 |pmc=8904582 |bibcode=2022NatCo..13.1107W |issn=2041-1723}}</ref> True squid diverged during the Jurassic, but many squid families appeared in or after the [[Cretaceous]].<ref name="Tanner Fuchs Winkelmann Gilbert p=20162818">{{cite journal | last1=Tanner | first1=Alastair R. | last2=Fuchs | first2=Dirk | last3=Winkelmann | first3=Inger E. | last4=Gilbert | first4=M.

Four lines diverged from this, Spirulida (with one living member), the [[cuttlefish]]es, the squids and the [[octopus]]es. Squid have differentiated from the ancestral [[mollusc]] such that the body plan has been condensed antero-posteriorly and extended dorso-ventrally. What may have been the [[Foot (mollusc)|foot]] of the ancestor is modified into a complex set of appendages around the mouth. The sense organs are highly developed and include advanced eyes similar to those of [[vertebrate]]s.<ref name=Ruppert>{{cite book |title=Invertebrate Zoology |edition=7th |last1=Ruppert |first1=Edward E. |last2=Fox |first2=Richard S. |last3=Barnes |first3=Robert D. |year=2004 |publisher=[[CEngage Learning]] |isbn=978-81-315-0104-7 |pages=343–367 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=A3opAQAAMAAJ}}</ref> The ancestral shell has been lost, with only an internal [[gladius (cephalopod)|gladius]], or pen, remaining.
