This tiny nocturnal octopus was identified from a photo in Humann & DeLoach (2010). The first two figured specimens, the upper from Kwajalein and the lower from Enewetak Atoll, were exposed on rocks at night.
The individual below was photographed by Christina Sylvester in one of the Kwajalein reef quarries at a depth of about 1m at night.
