深海章鱼属和深海章鱼属之间的严重混淆源于大西洋深海章鱼arcticus（Presch，1849）的错误鉴定，这里显示它至少由两个异域物种组成-名义形式是真正的北极物种;另一个，Octopus ba/rd/'/Verrill，1873，是北方冷水形式，被恢复为深海章鱼。A\h\rä species，Bathypolypus pugniger，n.例如，系统位置不确定，发生在沿着B南部边界的狭窄地带。北极星同义词进行了讨论，并提出证据，所有的记录Benthoctopus piscatorum（Verrill，1879年）是错误的，模式标本是相同的B。拜尔迪。使用一个修正的属的诊断，一个关键的调查所有Bathypolypus物种。六个物种，所有大西洋，被确认。本书列出分布及生境，并附有检索表及列表，以方便识别。
Profound confusion among deep-water octopods of the genera Bathypolypus and Benthoctopus stems from misidentifications of the Atlantic Bathypolypus arcticus (Presch, 1849), which is here shown to consist of at least two allopatric species— the nominal form is a truly arctic species; the other, Octopus ba/rd/'/ Verrill, 1873, is a boreal cold-water form, which is reinstated as a Bathypolypus. A\h\rä species, Bathypolypus pugniger, n. sp., of uncertain systematic position, occurs in a narrow belt along the southern limit of B. arcticus. Synonyms are discussed, and evidence is advanced that all records of Benthoctopus piscatorum (Verrill, 1879) are erroneous and that the type specimen is identical with B. bairdii. Using an amended generic diagnosis, a critical survey of all Bathypolypus species is given. Six species, all Atlantic, are recognized. Distribution and habitats are given, and a key and tables provided to facilitate identifications.
