Neopontonides chacei

This tiny shrimp is only about 1/4" long. There were at least 4 of them on the sea whip, probably a lot more but almost impossible to see with the naked eye. The species has been identified by a marine biologist after I collected some specimens. She said I may have the only photos of this shrimp alive and in its natural environment.
