Nautilus Pompilius è un genere di molluschi cefalopodi tetrabranchiati, precedentemente considerato estinto sulla base di ritrovamenti fossili risalenti al Paleozoico. La sua scoperta in vita è avvenuta solamente nel 1829, ed è stato classificato come un fossile vivente, spesso definito anche un capolavoro di ingegneria. La conchiglia del nautilus, già nota e utilizzata in oreficeria fin dal XVII secolo grazie agli scambi commerciali con le Indie orientali, è diventata uno dei suoi tratti distintivi.

Altezza Nautilus: 121 mm
