Summary
| Description |
English: Amphioctopus marginatus. This small octopus was found on a night dive off the Northern coast of East Timor approximately 40 kilometers West of the capital Dili. This individual used the two shells as protection by pulling them around itself when it sensed danger. Other individuals have demonstrated the ability to carry the shells with them as they travel across the bottom in search of prey. The dive site where this individual was observed is called "Sandy Bottom".
Français : Cette petite pieuvre a été surprise pendant une plongée de nuit au large de la côte du Timor Oriental, à peu près à 40 km à l'Ouest de la capitale, Dili. Cet individu utilisait les deux coquillages comme une protection, en les tirant autour de lui lorsqu'il se sentait en danger. D'autres individus ont fait la preuve de leur capacité à emporter des coquillages lors de leurs déplacement sur le fond à la recherche d'une proie. Le site de plongée où ont été trouvés ses individus s'appelle "Les Fonds Sablonneux". |
