Grimpoteuthis, also called Dumbo Octopus, is a genus of pelagic umbrella octopus that live in the deep sea. Prominent ear-like fins protrude from the mantle just above their lateral eyes. They have a U or V shaped shell in their mantle which gives them a bell shaped appearance. Some species are short, squat and yellow, while others resemble a jellyfish with one big brown walking shoe. These octopuses are commonly nicknamed Dumbo octopuses or Dumbo octopods or even Dumboes. Order: Octopoda, Family: Opisthoteuthidae, Genus: Grimpoteuthis, Species: Grimpoteuthis discoveryi.
