分离到18个分离株，分别为E.在美国夏威夷的卡内奥赫湾采集并在实验室中观察了拟海蛛。他们不合群，主要是夜间活动。研究了摄食和防御行为。该物种喜欢虾作为猎物。它往往是神秘的。隐色的适应包括颜色变化以匹配背景（基质），挖沙和将沙粒粘在个体本身的背部。据推测，这些颗粒是由皮肤的粘性分泌物固定的。捕获的动物也产生了明显而不是神秘的图案。它们非常明显，偶尔错综复杂，光与暗的组合。其中一些是独特的。单次交配在某些方面（表演者的空间位置）是特殊的，但在其他方面（雄性和雌性的颜色消失）让人想起真正的乌贼属乌贼。这些观察结果的系统发育含义还远不清楚。根据行为证据，Euprymna可能是一种类似乌贼的乌贼，也可能是一种类似乌贼的乌贼。它并没有显示出任何特别的相似之处Idisepius，另一个假定的亲属乌贼。
Individuals (18) of the sepiolid E. scolopes were collected in Kaneohe Bay, Oahu, Hawaii [USA] and observed in the laboratory. They were non-gregarious and primarily nocturnal. Feeding and defensive behavior were studied. The species prefers shrimp as prey. It is often cryptic. Among the adaptations for crypsis are color changes to match backgrounds (substrates), sand burrowing and the cementing of sand grains to the back of an individual itself. The grains presumably are held in place by adhesive secretions of the skin. The captive animals also produced patterns which were conspicuous rather than cryptic. They were highly visible, occasionally intricate, combinations of light and dark. Some of them were distinctive. A single copulation was peculiar in certain respects (the spatial positions of the performers), but reminiscent of true cuttlefishes of the genus Sepia in other respects (color dislays of both male and female). The phylogenetic implications of these observations are far from clear. On the behavioral evidence, Euprymna could be either a squid-like cuttlefish or a cuttlefish-like squid. It does not show any particular resemblance to Idisepius, another supposed relative of Sepia.
