Numéro d’image : 11906807
| An unidentified stomatopod or mantis shrimp found in the waters off Jamaica. Stomatopods are marine burrowing crustaceans belonging to the class Malacostraca. They have a small,flattened carapace,stalked compound eyes and five pairs of thoracic limbs. The second pair of thoracic limbs is greatly-enlarged,giving the animal its mantis- like appearance. Like the legs of the mantis,they are used for reaching out and capturing prey. The leg joints are equipped with sharp spines which prevent the prey (shrimps,fish & molluscs) from escaping. The flattened abdominal limbs and tail fan are used for swimming | |
