Onykia is a genus of squids in the family Onychoteuthidae. Due to similarities between the genera, several recent authors consider the genus Moroteuthis a junior synonym of Onykia. The type species is Onykia carriboea, the tropical clubhook squid.
Species The following are the valid species currently recognised as members of the genus Onkyia by the World Register of Marine Species: Onykia aequatorialis (Thiele, 1920) Onykia carriboea Lesueur, 1821 Onykia indica Okutani, 1981 Onykia ingens (E.
