With specimens of the flapjack octopus turning up since 1990, isn’t it about time they got a name? That’s what Stephanie Bush from the ‘Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute’ thinks anyway. The postdoctoral researcher says that the tiny, little 7 inch octopus is so cute that it should perhaps be named ‘Opisthoteuthis Adorabilis’. They’re certainly adorable, that’s for sure! This little creature is the same genus as the character Pearl from ‘Finding Nemo’, although, we think he looks like a species of Pokemon! Check out the cute species below!
