Dumbo Octopus – Grimpoteuthis bathynectes One of the rarest Dumbo octopus species, known for its soft, umbrella-shaped body and beautiful lavender color. Its short arms are connected by a delicate web that lets it glide through the water as if it’s flying, while its ear-like fins give it that iconic “Dumbo” look. And the shocking part? This footage was captured at a depth of 3,500 meters — a place where the pressure would crush most creatures, yet it moves calmly as if it owns the deep. #DeepSea

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. Rather, it flies only by the power of its two headbound fins. Though the IUCN red list certifies thi

Cue gliding into the weekend vibes 🐙💫⁠ ⁠ Grimpoteuthis octopuses use the movement of their large fins and arms to propel themselves through the water. They are affectionately called the “dumbo” octopuses because of those flapping fins. This group of octopuses is typically found on or near the deep seafloor, where they use finger-like cirri on their arms to catch small crustaceans, worms, and other prey items. | MBARI
