Dray Van Beeck Does any one know what kind of shrimp this is? Latin name would be great.

David Kearnes Location where it was photographed would be helpful but maybe bumblebee shrimp, Gnathophyllum americanum, would be a start.

Dray Van Beeck Thanks, it was taken in Pemuteran, Bali

Ilan Lubitz bumblebee shrimp (y)

Dray Van Beeck Got it. Thanks all.

Frans Ricc This photo is not as good as it should be, but I'd like to share my happiness to have found and photographed my first Bumblebee Shrimp, in Pemuteran Bay (Bali). My happiness is even greater because I've found it by myself :) Bumblebee Shrimp (Gnathophyllum americanum), less than 1 cm long Nikon D80 with 105 mm macro f22 1/200 ISO 100, 1 flash Z240 manual settings.

Evie Go It is a very good shot still Francesco Ricciardi! very sharp & showing the tiniest details! I know Bumblebees are very hard to shoot! They keep on moving & wont stand still!

Imran Ahmad I like it... Colors are great...

Chris Spence I think you have done very well with a very difficult subject! And great you found it yourself!

Dennis Corpuz Congratulation and well done! :)

Frans Ricc Thanks guys! :)
