Someone in a group I’m in caught this and they’re saying it’s a mantis shrimp but I thought they were much more colorful so I’m just wondering if this is indeed one.

Dug from hole in beach. many such holes and mantis shrimp on the beach.

Washed up on shore. Possibly Cambaridae, carried from freshwater pond nearby?

Sejenis Belut pasir laut

Caught by a fisherman at night using pilchard bait. Around 80-90cm in length.

probably albino moray eel? i assume the species is Myrichthys ocellatus since its the most common moray eel in the region

Never seen one of these before. Best I could tell when I found it was that it was a type of shrimp. Sargassum looks the closest to me, but I’m not experienced in IDing these at all.

I cannot disclose the exact locations of these photos to ensure the security of these populations. P. mixtlanensis, was recently described by Ornelas-García et al. (2015).

Maybe?
