Sea Spider - Pantopoda This is a Sea Spider from the order Pantopoda.<br /> They looks like skeleton only, even on the part of the body, its just as slender as their legs.<br /> In this picture, you can see the head/face which is the smaller protrusion in the front. Am not sure if they have eyes.<br /> This one was carrying some whitish stuff under its body, which is likely its eggs.<br /> This was one of the bigger Sea Spider I have seen, around 3 cm (legs extended end-to-end).

      Yes, they do moves quite a bit.
      When not moving, they can be very hard to see/find.       Posted 9 years ago
