I recently saw Discovery Channel's footage about the "recently-discovered"
mimic octopus. It was billed as, and really is AMAZING.

The octopus is able to shape itself, color itself and swim very much like a
flounder or like a sea snake and like other creatures as defenses.

Anyone with more information or a website on this? What's the Latin name and
the range?
