A spindly, orange-colored crab is centered in the image, nestled on a background of fuzzy, purple sea fans and sponges. The crab has an elongated, triangular body with a sharply pointed “nose” (rostrum) extending forward. Its long, thin legs stretch outward like a spider’s, helping it blend in with the delicate, branch-like coral around it. The textures are intricate, with fine hairs on both the crab and coral, and vivid underwater hues in purple, orange, and red tones.
Singer Island Bridge — the common Yellowline Arrow Crab (Stenorhynchus seticornis) in all its spindly glory. Zoom in on its eyes.
