Enoplometopus crosnieri [Enoplometopus crosnieri]
Description
This species is another crevice-dwelling, lobster-like crustacean that divers may spot along reef structures. You’ll most likely see it peeking out from a crack or overhang, then backing into cover if you approach too quickly. With a bit of patience, it can be observed foraging near the entrance of its shelter.
