Oplophoridae Dana 1852
Family Oplophoridae Dana, 1852 Most oplophorids are pelagic, often with a thin carapace and bright orange to red color. The toothed rostrum varies from short to long. The carapace may bear teeth and carinae. Some species also have teeth on the dorsal midline of the abdominal somites. Eyes may be pig...
