Idiosepius is a genus of squids in the family Idiosepiidae.[2] They are small, reaching mantle lengths of no more than about 21 mm (0.8 in);[3] members of this genus represent no interest to commercial fisheries.[4] They occur in tropical and temperate waters throughout the Indo-Pacific, primarily in association with seagrass and mangrove roots.[3]
