Yellowline Arrow Crab

Stenorhynchus seticornis

Yellowline Arrow Crab

With its needle thin legs and a long pointed snout, the yellowline arrow crab looks more like a spider than a crab. It picks its way across reefs and seagrass over rock, shell and sand, sometimes sheltering beside a sea anemone, and ranges from the shoreline to great depth.
