 | | When this power is started, Octopoda Umbra's sense of touch is acute in their many tiny suckers on their hands and feet. |  | | Each tentacle has four health levels (and is affected by fire and sunlight as a vampire) and has the defense of 2. |  | | The actual process of fading into the surroundings are subtle, but its affect on witnesses might not be. |

 | | Other Octopoda, however, are pelagic and free-swimming, and such habits are not confined to those forms which are provided with lateral fins. |  | | It does not occur, however, in octopus nor in many other members of the group. |  | | The Argonaut (see NAUTILUS) is one of the Octopoda. |

 | | (1999) argue, therefore, that the benthic habitat was the primitive one within the Octopoda and that pelagic species, which comprise nine of the eleven octopod families, are secondarily pelagic. |  | | Naef (1923) felt that the origin of the Octopoda would "forever be obscure." But Naef was unaware of the significance of Vampyroteuthis which was believed to be a cirrate octopod at the time. |  | | However the manner in which Vampyroteuthis actually uses its arms and its possible association with gelatinous animals has yet to be demonstrated. |

| | Fossil Coleoidea - Vampyropoda |
 | | The loss of the phragmocone probably also trigged the development of an alternative buoyancy system. |  | | However, this term is not synonymous with Vampyropoda because in its original definition that taxon did not embrace to Vampyromorpha. |  | | Two lineages are recognized within the Vampyropoda; the Vampyromorpha Grimpe, 1917 and the Octopoda Leach, 1817. |

 | | The term may also refer to only those creatures in the genus Octopus. |  | | The term octopod (either plural octopods and octopodes can be found) is taken from the taxonomic order octopoda but has no classical equivalent. |  | | The collective form octopus is usually reserved for animals consumed for food. |

 | | The two suborders of Octopoda are very different in appearance but there is little doubt that it is a natural group as the monophyly of the Octopoda is supported by a large variety of characters. |  | | The Cirrata is a group of deep-sea octopods commonly known as the "finned octopods" due to their large, wing-like fins. |  | | Others alternate between a benthic and a pelagic (free-swimming) habitat and some species are completely pelagic. |
