Mantis Shrimp, female
(Odontodactylus scyllarus)
The male of this
species is often bright green, but the female is more bland. These nocturnal
predators feed on other crustaceans, worms, molluscs and fishes.
When detected this crustacean
prefers to retreat into its shelter, but be aware: they are not defenseless
and can do a great deal of damage to one's finger!
