Jollyorum Octopus [Octopus jollyorum]
Description
This octopus tends to be a stealthy reef dweller, with divers most likely to spot it when it leaves a hiding spot to investigate the area. Look for a calm, investigative demeanor—then rapid concealment—paired with subtle to striking camouflage adjustments against the seafloor.
