1999年8月29日，在巴西南部海域（南纬28°05 '，西经45° 35'）发现了一具漂浮着的巨型乌贼的尸体。该标本是一个成熟的女性116厘米地幔长度和手臂不完整和触角失踪。该标本在形态上与先前描述的西南大西洋标本相似，但在鳍的形状、头部和腹臂的横截面和长度上发现了一些特殊之处。在左腹臂的皮肤内发现了精子囊，距离嘴巴约60厘米，可以追溯到手臂的核心，从进入点辐射近4厘米。这是在巴西沃茨发现的第三个Architeuthis记录，也是在西南大西洋发现的第八个。
A carcass of a giant squid Architeuthis sp. was found afloat off Southern Brazil (28°05'S, 45°35'W) on 29 August 1999. The specimen was a mature female of 116 cm mantle length and had arms incomplete and tentacles missing. The specimen was morphologically similar to those previously described for the Southwest Atlantic, but a few peculiarities were found on the shape of the fins, head and the cross-section and length of ventral arms. Spermatophores were found embedded within the skin of the left ventral arm, at around 60 cm from the mouth, and could be traced to the core of the arm, radiating nearly four centimeters from the point of entry. This was the third record of Architeuthis in Brazilian waters and the eighth in Southwest Atlantic when the specimen was found.
