Octopuses popularly called as ‘devilfish’ are
caught mainly as bycatch in the bottom trawl. Due
to the growing demand for octopus in the international
market, octopus fishery is catching up in
Maharashtra. The main fish landing centres for
octopus in Mumbai are New Ferry Wharf and
Sassoon Dock. Octopuses contribute 3.6% towards
the total cephalopod catch in Mumbai. Ommen (1971,
1977) identified many new species of octopus along
the west coast of India.
