There isn't any commonly-used word for this situation. The isn't even an accepted Latin word for squid; scientific names for squids usually include the word teuthis, which is from Classical Greek.

If we wanted to invent a word, it would probably be teuthine. After all, canis means dog and leads to canine, so teuthis (if we assume it means squid) should yield teuthine, meaning squid-like. It isn't the most attractive of words, but hey, it might catch on.
