[EN] This paper reports two species of octopods from the Canary Islands for the first time: Amphioctopus burryi, and Macrotritopus defilippi. Two specimens, one for each species, were caught by scuba diving in Tenerife Island. Morphological and morphometric characteristics and information on habitat, biology and geographical distribution of the two species are given. The specimen of M. defilippi was filmed. In a 17 seconds video record the animal displayed a “flamboyant pattern” while walking on the substrate supported on its arms fleeing the diver. As far as we know, this is the first time that the species is filmed in its natural habitat.
[ES] En este artículo se reportan por primera vez dos nuevos registros de pulpos en las islas Canarias: Amphioctopus burryi, and Macrotritopus defilippi. Se capturó un ejemplar de cada especie mediante buceo autónomo en la isla de Tenerife. Se proporciona información sobre el hábitat, biología y distribución geográfica de ambas especies. El ejemplar de M. defilippi fue filmado, y, en un registro de video de 17 segundos, mostró una “pauta llamativa”. mientras caminaba sobre el sustrato apoyado sobre sus brazos tratando de huir del buceador. Hasta donde conocemos, esta es la primera vez que se filma la especie en su medio natural
