The Spot-Tail Mantis Shrimp (Squilla mantis) is a fascinating marine crustacean known for its vibrant coloration and powerful raptorial appendages, which it uses to catch prey with lightning-fast strikes. Found in sandy and muddy seabeds of the Mediterranean Sea and Eastern Atlantic, this species is a skilled ambush predator, feeding on small fish and invertebrates. Despite its name, it is not a true shrimp but belongs to the stomatopod family, a group famous for their exceptional vision and rapid hunting techniques.

This beautifully framed Spot-Tail Mantis Shrimp highlights the intricate details of its elongated body, striking pattern, and specialized limbs, making it a stunning addition to any natural history collection or marine-themed décor.

📌 Please note: Each specimen is unique, so there may be slight variances in color, shape, and texture. The mantis shrimp is displayed in a glass-front wooden frame, ready to hang or display.
