Octopus giganteus : ウィキペディア英語版 | St. Augustine Monster
The St. Augustine Monster is the name given to a large unidentified carcass, originally postulated to be the remains of a gigantic octopus, that washed ashore on the United States coast near St. Augustine, Florida, in 1896. It is sometimes referred to as the Florida Monster or the St. Augustine Giant Octopus and is one of the earliest recorded examples of a globster. The species that the carcass supposedly represented has been assigned the binomial names ''Octopus giganteus'' (Latin for "giant octopus")〔 and ''Otoctopus giganteus'' (Greek prefix: ''oton'' = "ear"; "giant-eared octopus"),〔 although these are not valid under the rules of the ICZN. Recent analysis concludes that the St. Augustine Monster was a large mass of the collagenous matrix of whale blubber, likely from a sperm whale (1995).〔 ==Discovery==
