Grimpoteuthis bathynectes
Description:
Description: Français : This octopod, Grimpoteuthis bathynectes, is nicknamed “Dumbo” because of its large “ear” like fins. These fins and webbed arms help it swim through the water. What looks like the head is called the mantle, a muscular bag that holds all the body organs and gills. Date: 12 June 2014, 06:33:09.
