Skeleton shrimp (fam. Caprellidae), amphipod about 1.3 cm long, also called Ghost shrimp and nicknamed ’the walking stick’ of the sea. The body is held upright by the hind legs, like a praying mantis. Usually seen on feather-like hydrozoans. In motion and close up, looks like an alien from another planet.
