Sea Creatures That You Should Probably Be Aware Of

<< < (31/95) > >>

jhocking:
The number of tentacles is not the only difference between an octopus and a squid. In layman's terms, a squid is like a torpedo (complete with jet propulsion) while an octopus is an amorphous blob. Thus, an "octosquid" is a squid with 8 tentacles.

Emaline:
It would have helped if people actually read the 7 sentence article, which stated:


--- Quote from: UH Researchers To Investigate 'Octosquid' ---It has the body of a squid and the tentacles of an octopus.
--- End quote ---

McTaggart:
I didn't read it either. I just saw it on /. a couple days ago browsed the comments for anything funny. I don't think there was.

imapiratearg:
Maybe I should have put up a picture of a sea anemone with the Andrew Pants song.  :|

Verergoca:
Jho, the squid also has the JET going on.

Also, allow me to poke fun at biological naming conventions plx.
