Cirrothauma magna, also known as the big-eye jellyhead,[2] is a species of deep-sea cirrate octopus that has been found in the Indian, Atlantic, and Pacific oceans.

C. magna is the sister taxon of Cirrothauma murrayi, but can be readily distinguished by having large and well developed eyes (whereas C. murrayi is near blind).

[4] Cirrothauma magna is likely the largest species of cirrate octopus, one female specimen measuring 1.7 m total length.

[5] The animal has delicate, jelly-like flesh.
