Muusoctopus bizikovi is a species of octopus in the family Enteroctopodidae.[1] It was first described in a paper by Ian G. Gleadall, Juergen Guerrero-Kommritz, Frederick G. Hochberg, and Vladimir V. Laptikhovsky in 2010 which described three inkless octopodid species from off the southeast coast of South America. The specimens were bycatch from the Falkland Islands fishery.[2]
