This is the Grimpoteuthis, Dumbo Octopus.

This cutie is a successful little being, and deserves all the hugs and dumbo-appropriate cookies it wants.

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 known as the dumbo octopuses. The fins reminded scientists of ears on the elephant in Disney’s 1941 film Dumbo. 🧵1/2

Some of my octopus art to celebrate the cephalopods this World Octopus Day! Most recently I made the dumbo octopus, a charming Grimpoteuthis octopus, one of a genus of pelagic cirrate (finned) octopods known as the dumbo octopuses. The fins reminded scientists of ears on the elephant in Disney’s 1941 film Dumbo. Hence their common name dumbo octopuses.
