Deep-sea loving Grimpoteuthis showed up a couple of times recently during dives with Ægir 6000 in Arctic waters. 🐙

Dumbo octopuses (genus Grimpoteuthis) are a genus of cirrate octopuses that look like gelatinous blobs or cartoon ghosts.

But their most iconic feature are their large fins that look like big elephant ears, hence their common name.

The deep sea's most graceful commuter 💫⁠

This Grimpoteuthis octopus moves through the water using large fins and webbed arms. Those ear-like fins have earned this group the nickname "dumbo octopuses." They use finger-like cirri lining their arms to help detect and capture small prey.

5️⃣. Dumbo ahtapotu
Derin denizde "uçarak" yüzen en tatlı ahtapot! 🐙 7000 metre derinlikte yaşıyor, yumurtalarını ömür boyu taşıyor ve evet onlar Dumbo kulakları gibi "kanatlar" (dişlerini sıkmaktan yazamadı)

Let’s go where snow rains down on the stars and a delicate creature flies with fins resembling elephant ears. This Grimpoteuthis, or Dumbo octopus, was spotted during the #SouthSandwichIslands expedition with @oceancensus.bsky.social.

Grimpoteuthis bathynectes, a type of Dumbo octopus cousin, often folds its arms over itself like it’s perpetually annoyed with your nonsense. And maybe it is. #marinelife

Must be nice to sit on the sea floor and chill like a big blob of jello...

I decided to draw/paint the jumping spider among cephalopods. Nothing highly complex, been very busy this week 😅 - just a silly little picture of a Grimpoteuthis with a Pac-Man ghost (I don't know why, but Grimpoteuthis reminds me of a Pac-Man ghost)

Deep-sea besties doing deep-sea things 🐙💞⁠

Grimpoteuthis octopuses use the movement of their large fins and arms to propel themselves through the water. The seafloor squish next to this cutie is a sea pig. Sea pigs are one of the most commonly sighted animals on the deep seafloor in Monterey Bay.

Day 15 #ArtAdventCalendar: The third #InsertAnInvert2024 prompt for deep sea month is abyssal - the lightless, extreme pressure and low oxygen zone 4 to 6 km below the surface. 🧪🐡 So I made a lino block print of a charming Grimpoteuthis octopus, one of a genus of pelagic cirrate (finned) octopods 🧵
