Sasakiopus
Sasakiopus is a genus of octopus containing only one species, Sasakiopus salebrosus, the rough octopus, It is part of the family Enteroctopodidae. Genetic analysis appeared to show that S. salebrosus is the sister-taxon of the genera Benthoctopus and Vulcanoctopus, although the former is now considered a synonym of Bathypolypus, the only genus in the family Bathypolypodidae, and the latter as a synonym of Muusoctopus.
