Immature octopods (Tremoctopus violaceus) have been found with numerous fragments of tentacles of the coelenterate Physalia attached to the suckers of their dorsal arms. The probable method of acquisition, the evidence of adaptation for holding the tentacles, and the possibility that the octopod uses these coelenterate tentacles as offensive and defensive weapons are discussed.
已发现未成熟的章鱼（Tremoctopus violaceus）的背部腕足吸盘上附着有大量腔肠动物僧帽水母（Physalia）的触手碎片。文中讨论了章鱼获取这些触手的可能方法、适应握持触手的证据，以及章鱼是否可能将这些腔肠动物触手用作进攻和防御武器的可能性。
