Webfoot Octopus

Amphioctopus membranaceus

Group: Octopus
Typical depth: to 60 m
Max size: 30 cm
IUCN status: DD

This octopus is a master of disguise, hiding in holes across flat bottoms and reaching about 30 centimetres overall. It tucks its short eight centimetre mantle out of sight and relies on cryptic behaviour rather than speed, down to around 60 metres. Too little is known to assess its status.
