Octopodiformes

== Translingual == === Etymology === From Latin octōpodis, genitive singular of octōpūs (from Ancient Greek ὀκτώπους (oktṓpous)) +‎ -iformes. Like most taxonomic names above the rank of genus, this was formed by adding the appropriate ending for the rank to a stem derived by removing the ending from the genitive of the generic name treated as a Latin noun (Though, in this case, the generic name came directly from the Latin name for the animal, so it was already Latin). === Proper noun === Octopodiformes A taxonomic superorder within the class Cephalopoda – vampire squid and octopods. ==== Synonyms ==== Octobrachia ==== Hypernyms ==== (superorder): Eukaryota – superkingdom; Animalia – kingdom; Bilateria – subkingdom; Protostomia – infrakingdom; Spiralia – superphylum; Mollusca – phylum; Cephalopoda – class; Coleoidea - subclass ==== Hyponyms ==== (superorder): Octopoda, Vampyromorphida - orders === References === Octopodiformes on Wikipedia.Wikipedia Octopodiformes on Wikispecies.Wikispecies Category:Octopodiformes on Wikimedia Commons.Wikimedia Commons Octopodiformes at National Center for Biotechnology Information Octopodiformes at World Register of Marine Species Octopodiformes at the Tree of Life Web Project Ruggiero MA, Gordon DP, Orrell TM, Bailly N, Bourgoin T, Brusca RC, et al.
