Grimpoteuthis, commonly known as the "Dumbo octopus," was first described by the British zoologist Sir John Murray in 1910. The name "Grimpoteuthis" refers to a genus of deep-sea octopuses characterized by their ear-like fins that resemble the Disney character Dumbo. Since its discovery, various species within this genus have been identified through subsequent research and exploration of deep ocean habitats.
