48. Octopus brevipes, d'Orbigny. 



1838. Octopus brevipes, d'Orb., Ceph.' ac(5t., p. 61 ; Poulpes, pi. xvii. fig. 1. 



I do not feel certain that this species and Octopus cuvieri are really the same. D'Orbigny places them together 

 under the name Octopus cuvieri, and Verany regards them as identical, but prefers the name Octopus macropus. Targioni- 

 Tozzetti separates tbem, and Dr. Jatta unites them. Professor Steenstrup informs me that he is not convinced of their 

 identity.
