Anatomy

Peacock Mantis Shrimp

Peacock mantis shrimp are one of the largest and most colorful species of mantis shrimp. Their size ranges from 1.2 to 7.1 inches and their narrow, hard-shelled bodies are covered in beautiful shades of orange, green, red and blue.

Mantis Shrimp

Mantis shrimp are ancient, fierce and more than a little weird. Various forms of mantis shrimp have been around for an estimated 400 million years, and they aren’t like any other shrimp around. They are so freakishly strong that their appendages, called “clubs,” can smash crab shells and bust open clams. (Some varieties have spears rather than clubs, which are equally formidable.)

Through the eyes of a peacock mantis shrimp

Odontodactylus scyllarus (peacock mantis shrimp) is neither a peacock, mantis nor shrimp but a different kind of crustacean which resembles all, regardless of its common name. It is famous for its greatly enlarged hammer-like second raptorial appendage which it uses to smash its prey and defend itself against predators, both in high speeds and with a crushing force [1].
