Wunderpus [Wunderpus]
Description
Wunderpus are small, highly camouflaged octopuses that divers sometimes encounter on reef slopes and rubble. With their unusual skin texture and ability to match the surrounding colors and patterns, they can look like a piece of the habitat before they slowly move or change posture.
