Re: Marine crustacean to identify

The Googling I've done leads me to believe that isopods and decapods are different things. I haven't come across any pictures of decapods that are like my specimen, but on the other hand, isopods, as the name suggests, have lots of similar legs, growing from segments down most of the body's length, not just the front end. And typically, seven pairs of them.
