Taonius pavo is a species of glass squid found in the Atlantic Ocean. Its exact geographic distribution is uncertain, but it may extend to the southwestern Indian Ocean through the Agulhas Current.[3]
They are eaten by the sperm whale in Southeast Asia, southern Australian, Hawaiian, and North Atlantic waters[4][5][6][7].
