Octopodidae
The Octopodidae are a family containing the majority of known octopus species (about 175 species).
The World Register of Marine Species lists these 23 genera:
Several undescribed species are known, such as the white V octopus which may or may not be placed in the genus Thaumoctopus. Two fossil genera are also known: Styletoctopus from the Late Cretaceous (Cenomanian) of the Sannine Formation in Lebanon, and Bolcaoctopus from the Early Eocene (Ypresian) of Monte Bolca, Italy.
The following is a maximum likelihood phylogenetic tree based on 13 protein-coding genes partitioned by codon, and nodes with less than 70% bootstrap support are collapsed, forming polytomies. The root, being Vampyroteuthis infernalis, is not shown:
