The blue-lined octopus (Hapalochlaena fasciata) is one of three (or perhaps four) species of venomous Blue-ringed octopuses. It is most commonly found around intertidal rocky shores and coastal waters to a depth of 15 metres (49 ft) between southern Queensland and southern New South Wales. Its mantle can grow up to 45 millimetres (1.8 in) in length. It has an appearance of yellow hide with dark blue or black streaks covering the whole body apart from the underside of its arms.
