A translator friend has informed that the Spanish term for manta ray is "pez manta" which means "blanket fish."

The Dana octopus squid is an 8-armed squid whose tentacles are reduced or disappear by the time they reach adulthood. Also, those lidded photophores are the largest known light-producing organs found in any animal.
