Hi,
very interesting and beautiful illustrated story. The cave shrimp is a great find. Thank you for sharing.

Thanks Andreas.

Hi Michael,


For the Wood Shrimps, I thought the one with the big front legs is the male, while the one with small front legs is the female. I have a pair at home and the female is now berried with eggs...

I do notice the difference of the front legs on your picture that have a sharp protruding edge, which is very difference from the nomal Wood Shrimps.



Really envy you to be able to explore such places with interesting plants and animals. Maybe we can organize a trip in the near future to explore some new places with you.. Cheers!

The normal adult wood shrimp also got that sharp protruding edge....see the pix in this link:
