Rare sighting reveals deep-sea octopus's unusual breakfast

MBARI Using rare video footage from a deep-diving robot, marine biologists have for the first time identified the diet of the elusive 'seven-arm' octopus. The discovery, published on 27 March in Scientific Reports, provides insight into the habits of the shy cephalopod ( Haliphron atlanticus), which was spotted nearly four years ago eating an egg-yolk jellyfish ( Phacellophora camtschatica).
