Octopus insularis is a species of octopus described in 2008 from individuals found off the coast of Brazil, with a potentially much larger range.
The species is described as medium in size and as a specialized generalist-opportunistic predator with a diet of mainly crustaceans, bivalves, and gastropods. Recently recognized as a separate species from O. vulgaris, O. insularis has been found to be different in physiology and reproductive behavior.
