Caribbean Spiny Lobster

Panulirus argus

Description:

There are two lobster featured here on the same snorkeling site. The first has found shelter in an encrusted ceramic pipe and the other is very small living under a small rock lip. Identified easily by the white and black horns, although I am not sure if any other species of lobster can be found in the region. Depth sighted (2.5m and 1.5m)

Habitat:

Under rock shelf ledges, Caves, Holes, Rocks, (Marine)
