About: St. Augustine Monster

An Entity of Type: Timeline106504965, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The St. Augustine Monster is the name given to a large 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.

  • The St. Augustine Monster is the name given to a large 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. A 1995 analysis concluded that the St. Augustine Monster was a large mass of the collagenous matrix of whale blubber, likely from a sperm whale. (en)
  • 聖奧古斯丁怪物（英文：St. Augustine Monster），又稱佛羅里達怪物（Florida Monster）、聖奧古斯丁巨型章魚（St. Augustine Giant Octopus），是指1896年在美國佛羅里達州聖奧古斯丁海岸發現的神秘生物遺骸。聖奧古斯丁歷史學會與科學研究所創建者德威特·韋布（DeWitt Webb）在檢查后認爲神秘遺骸屬於巨型章魚。1995年的分析結論爲聖奧古斯丁怪物是一大塊脫落的鯨脂，可能屬於抹香鯨。 (zh)
