That should help identify the areas... function would require a bit more searching or waiting for Dr. Roy.

And that would be The Lurker's Guide to Stomatopods . You should consider that God's Hand steering you in the right direction. That is probably the best site to go for quick learning about Mantis Shrimp. :reading:

Like DM says, though, with 30 minutes and Google, you can find out almost everything you need to know. I went to Google (www.google.com) and did a search on "mantis shrimp stomatopod telson" and got back 5+ pages of sites. :reading:

Don't skip checking out the lurker site, though. It has a lot of good info and good links to other sources. :thumbsup:

You can get one of my labelled drawings of a stomatopod here.
