Discovery? edit

I've removed the following paragraph from the article as it has remained unsourced for months and cannot possibly refer to the initial discovery of this species (which was described over a century ago). If anyone can find reliable sources to support this information, then it can be added back. mgiganteus1 (talk) 01:13, 27 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

The creature was first photographed alive in Nigeria in 2005 as part of the SERPENT project and was later submitted by Alan Kinnear for the BP Kongsberg Underwater Image Competition in 2006.[citation needed] Since this time the cephalopod has grown in popularity and the first studies have begun with some research projects even winning the financial support of major corporations. Marine Biologist Emily Butt initiated the first longitudinal study of the cephalopod which is due to be published by Minerva Press.[citation needed]
