The Octopus is another one of those creatures in the animal kingdom that people cannot immediately place into those generic catagories like mammals, insects, birds. To be honest, the actual name of its group is not helpful either. I cannot even pronounce it without wincing.
The octopus, to set the records straight, is not a mammal. It is a cephalopod (octopod) mollusk of the order Octopoda (see what I mean about the name…). The true octopuses are members of the genus Octopus, a large group of widely distributed, shallow-water cephalopods.
Cephalopods, members of the class Cephalopoda, of the phylum Mollusca, are a small group of highly advanced and organized, exclusively marine animals.
The octopus, squid, cuttlefish, and chambered nautilus are familiar representatives.
