Dwarf Tanaid [Decapseudes]
Description
Decapseudes species are small, often overlooked members of the Parapseudidae family, distinguished by their compact size and relatively simple body structure. They inhabit a variety of marine sediments from coastal areas to the deep sea. As detritivores, they contribute to the breakdown and recycling of organic material, playing a crucial role in the benthic nutrient cycle.
