Group description De koppotigen zijn veruit de meest succesvolle weekdieren. Deze vrijzwemmende, snel bewegende rovers hebben goed ontwikkelde ogen, tentakels en een mond met een paar taaie kaken in de vorm van een papegaaienbek. Met uitzondering van één genus (Nautilus) hebben de inktvissen geen uitwendige schelp meer, maar is deze vervangen door een inwendige kalkplaat, in de volksmond ‘zeeschuim’ genoemd. Rond het lichaam zit een dikke, gespierde mantel. Deze buitengewoon intelligente dieren zijn meesters in het vermommen. Alle koppotigen kunnen van vorm en kleur veranderen om zich te camoufleren of om indruk te maken op een potentiële partner. Bijna alle koppotigen kunnen ook inkt spuiten. Wanneer een dier gealarmeerd raakt, komt de inkt vrij en zorgt dit voor verwarring bij mogelijke aanvallers.Naamsverklaring:
