Mark Douglas Norman is a marine biologist living in southern Australia where he works through the University of Melbourne and Museum Victoria.[1] For over a decade, Norman has been working exclusively with cephalopods and he is one of the leading scientists in the field, having discovered over 150 new species of octopuses. The best known of these is probably the Mimic Octopus.[2]
