Octopus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Octopus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "An octopus's camouflage is aided by certain specialized skin cells which can change the apparent color, opacity, and reflectiveness of the epidermis. Chromatophores contain yellow, orange, red, brown, or black pigments; most species have three of these colors, while some have two or four."
