This print by Steve Jones captures the vibrant beauty of an Orange Mantis Shrimp in its natural habitat. Taken in Papua New Guinea, specifically in the volcanic sand of Volcano crater, Witu Islands, this image showcases the mesmerizing colors and intricate details of this unique marine creature. The Orange Mantis Shrimp (Lysiosquilloides mapia) is a member of the stomatopoda family and belongs to the crustacean group known as mantis shrimp. Its striking orange hue stands out against the sandy ocean floor, where it has created its burrow for protection and shelter. With compound eyes that provide exceptional vision, this arthropod demonstrates remarkable animal behavior as it hides within its den. The close-up shot allows us to appreciate every aspect of this fascinating creature's anatomy – from its powerful claws to its delicate yet dangerous presence. Steve Jones' photography skills truly shine through in capturing such a stunning moment in nature. This image not only highlights the incredible diversity found underwater but also serves as a reminder of how important it is to preserve our oceans and their inhabitants. Whether you are an enthusiast of marine biology or simply captivated by beautiful sea life imagery, this photograph will undoubtedly bring joy and wonder into any space it graces.
