Dumbo Octopus – Grimpoteuthis bathynectes One of the rarest Dumbo octopus species, known for its soft, umbrella-shaped body and beautiful lavender color.

Dumbo octopuses (Grimpoteuthis spp., also known as “umbrella octopuses”) are known as one of the deepest living species of octopus in the ocean, inhabiting depths of up to 13,000 feet below the surface! You’ll notice this particular species (identified as “Cirroteuthis” by cephalopod expert Janet Voight from the @Negaunee Integrative Research Center), does not use jet propulsion like its cousins.
