Re: Shrimps

Carnt tell the hermit from the view possibly Pagurus bernhardus , the prawn looks like Palaemon elegans , however there are 4 very similar species differentiated, by their number of rostral teeth (which again arnt clear in the photo, so i carnt say it with 100% confidence. The two P.elegans & P.serratus species do both occur in North West Wales.
