Dumbo Octopus
The octopuses of the genus Grimpoteuthis are also known as the "Dumbo Octopuses" from the ear-like fins protruding from the top of their head-like bodies.
They are benthic creatures living at extreme depths: 3000-4000 metres, and are some of the rarest of the Octopoda species.
​They can flush the transparent layer of their skin at will, and are pelagic animals, as with other citrate octopuses, and unlike many other incarnate Octopuses.
They hover above the sea floor, searching for worms, bivalves, pelagic copepods, and other crustaceans. They move by pulsing their arms, shooting water through their funnels or by waving their ear-like fins. Some of the 37 Species swim by expansion and contraction of their webbed arms.
