sealord > This close-up image shows hydroids attached to a pereiopod (walking leg) of a Columbus crab, Planes minutus, which was collected by Guernsey commercial crab fisherman Chris Marquis from a goose barnacle covered buoy floating in the Big Russell between the islands of Herm and Sark in the Bailiwick of Guernsey on 14 December 2006. Dr. Bernard Picton and Dr. Ferdinando Boero write that the hydroid is a Campanulariid, and it could be Clytia hemisphaerica, which is widespread. Dr. Boero writes that Clytia hemispaerica lives on many different substrates including floating plastic bags. File No. 141206 13-871 ©RLLord fishinfo@guernsey.net
