Octopus?

So in February an octopus was found deep in the ocean and it could possibly be a new species. It was found in an ocean near Hawaii about 2 1/2 miles underwater. It was discovered by Deep Discovery, a little camera vehicle that can get around underwater to do research, also called and ROV. As the ROV scanned the ocean bottom it came to a flat area where a little octopus was sitting on top of the sediment. The appearance of this animal wasn’t like any other published records of any kind of cephalopod. A cephalopod is the class of any large mollusk. Also this cephalopod was deeper than any other recorded. Cirrate octopods are cephalopods which have fins between their arms and little finger-like strands near their suckers. This kind has been reported at depths up to 5,000 meters. But the octopod encountered by Deep Discoverer was incirrate, like the familiar octopus; and incirrate octopods have never been detected at depths below 4,000 meters. Not only is the little animal unique for it’s depth but also it’s appearance. Rather than two series of suckers on each arm it only had one. It was also unusual because of it’s color; it didn’t have pigment cells called chromatophores which most octopus’ have; giving it a ghost white color. Lastly, the creature did not seem to be very muscular so it looked very squishy. If you haven’t seen this animal yet, here is a picture for you. Its a pretty cute little creature if you ask me.
