I made a silly ✋

I saw what I thought was an eaten carcass of one of my new crayfish.

It was a molt. She's fine.

I have kept shrimp for years, I SHOULD KNOW BETTER.

Welcome Dr Kayan Ma as a new Associate Editor for #Crustaceana!
An Associate Professor at Sun Yat-Sen University, her research spans crustacean phylogenomics, systematics & biogeography, with a particular focus on decapods. Her expertise in molecular and phylogeny-based studies will be invaluable. 👏
