Description
Periclimenes parvispinatus is a tiny reef shrimp that divers may find hovering near coral rubble, sponges, or the edges of reef structures. With a quick, darting movement, it often slips into crevices when light or bubbles draw attention. Look for subtle flashes of movement against the reef’s textures.
