Remarks

Mesopelagic, (off Malta 3000 m). Overall Depth Range in Sargasso Sea: 0-500 m (Deevey & Brooks, 1977, Station "S");
After Björnberg (1963, p.77) this species is registered off Brazil for the first time. It is entirely absent from all the coastal water samples examined. It occurred in deeper saline layers and in sevaral samples of very saline water (above 36 p.1000) and of temperatures ranging from 14.3 to 29.27°C).
Morphological characteristic after Bradford-Grieve & al. (1999):
Female: - In dorsal view, 1 terminal spine of P5 extends to posterior border of genital somite.
Male: - Mxp terminal claw slightly curved, inner edge without sharp step proximal to bordering small spinules.
For Fuentes-Reinés & Suarez-Morales (2017, p.517), in the Caribbean Sea, this species can be confused with L. aculeata , but they can be separated; 1- the structure of the female P5 which reashes the posterior border of the genital double-somite in L. squillimana and is shorter in L. aculeata.
After Benedetti & al. (2018, p.1, Fig.2) this species belonging to the functional group 6 corresponding to small ambush feeding omnivorous.
