Wikipedia and other sources state: The phylum mollusca includes many species with muscular hydrostats in the form of tentacles and arms: Octopodes do not have tentacles, they have arms. Tentacles are longer than arms and usually have suckers at their tips only. Squids and cuttlefish have eight arms like octopodes, and also two tentacles, which is one good way to distinguish squids from octopodes.
