Despite the label, this is actually a Flapjack octopus (Opisthoteuthis sp.), which is often confused with Dumbo octopuses. They are not very closely related, but have some similarities: Flapjack octopuses are more squat, with larger eyes, smaller fins, more often orange in coloration, and shorter arms with more webbing between them.
