Jeraldi Octopus [Octopus jeraldi]
Description
Jeraldi’s octopus is often seen near rocky bottoms where it can hide in crevices and rubble. Divers may notice it during slow swims over the reef—watch for a sudden emergence, a brief display of color and texture changes, and then a quick retreat back into cover.
