“…Scyllarides squammosus of the family Scyllaridae belongs to a taxon of slipper lobsters with four subfamilies, 88 species, and two subspecies (Wardiatno et al 2016) , previously thought to be 89 species (Yang et al 2012) . Although knowledge of S. squammosus has increased in recent years, scientific information is still limited and focused on only a few species (Lavalli and Spanier 2007;Lavalli et al 2020) , compared to the highly commercialized spiny lobsters of the Nephropidae and Palinuridae families (Spanier and Lavalli 2013) . This species can be distinguished by its last antennal segment, which is completely reduced to a flat plate and is used as a steering device to escape from predators (Wardiatno et al 2016) .…”

“…These legs do not extend widely beyond the body, suggesting that they were probably not suited to be used as a raptorial appendage, capturing prey from afar. The distal claw-shaped podomere and adjacent podomere with elongated spines of Tuzoia could have been used similar to the pereopods in benthic slipper lobsters [94], which are used to capture sessile, slow-moving prey or handle carcasses in the proximity. These legs are also reminiscent of the maxillipeds in several crustacean taxa [95,96], which have a primarily locomotory function but can also handle prey or tissues and bring them to the mouthparts [97].…”
