RE: What is this?

in #photography7 years ago

@scottdphoto, after an arduous search, I think they are Yellow Hairy Sea Spiders (Tanystylum anthomasti)

"But, even though they are jointed-legged invertebrates (arthropods) and most do have 8 legs, they are not true spiders (arachnids) nor are they crustaceans. They are a special group of arthropods called the “Pycnogonida”. The name “Pantapoda” is also used for the group which is Latin for “all legs”, a good label as they have almost no abdomen. "

Arduous search?..
I would've typed in "sea spiders" first, as that's exactly what they looked like.. LOL
:P

I suppose everyone is different. To each their own!

What is your point? That I wasted my time trying to solve this puzzle?

Thanks for the encouragement :( How very kind of you.

You are correct! Thanks.

I think this is stroberry, right .... ?
