Sepia pulchra is a species of cuttlefish native to the southeastern Atlantic Ocean, specifically off the Cape Peninsula in South Africa. It lives at depths of between 15 and 50 m.[3][4]

The type specimen was collected off Llandudno, Cape Peninsula. It is deposited at the South African Museum in Cape Town.[5]

Description

Sepia pulchra grows to a mantle length of 22 mm.[4] It has a warty mantle and is reddish-brown in colour with a large purple patch on the back. It has fins of variable width, which are usually fairly wide, beginning relatively far back on the body. There are three-pronged cirri over each eye.

Ecology

This cuttlefish is usually found on vertical surface, with its head facing downwards. It is seldom spotted because of its excellent camouflage.
