Panulirus brunneiflagellum [Panulirus brunneiflagellum]
Description
This spiny lobster species is typically encountered near reef edges and rocky bottoms, where it uses its spiny armor and crevice-hunting behavior to stay hidden. Divers may spot it during slow, careful scanning of the seafloor—especially around structures that provide tight refuge.
