shrimp from Sulawesi

1 posts

  1. hi folks !

     

    I got a jpg of this tiny shrimp from a (well-known) Australian UW photographer

     

    the photo was taken somewhere in Sulawesi

     

    as far as I can see it's an alpheid shrimp, possibly from the genus Athanas or Salmoneus, and is almost certainly a new species

     

    THE COLOUR PATTERN IS VERY DISTINCTIVE ! maybe somebody has seen this species before ?

     

    please remember the colour pattern and try to collect a few specimens next time you are in Sulawesi or Bali

     

    have a nice week-end !
