Scientists have discovered a new species of octopus nearly 1,800 metres below the water's surface near the Galapagos Islands. The team from the Charles Darwin Foundation named the “tiny” cerulean cephalopod Microeledone galapagensis because of its blue hue, which is believed to be the rarest colour in nature.
On the ocean floor near the Galapagos Islands, a submersible controlled by scientists came across a mysterious octopus as blue as the ocean and no bigger than a golf ball.
