Meet one of the reef’s most charming oddities — the Donald Duck Shrimp (Leander plumosus). With its distinctive duck-bill shaped rostrum, bold red-and-white markings and delicate transparent body, this tiny crustacean is a master of disguise in the busy textures of Indo-Pacific reefs. Often found tucked into crevices or living amongst sponges and hydroids, it survives through clever camouflage, social behaviour and precise timing as it moults and grows. In this short underwater glimpse from EXPLORER Issue 6, discover the fascinating life of this small but remarkable reef dweller — a reminder that wonder in the ocean is often found in the tiniest details.
