Pandalopsis dispar

The side-striped shrimp looks similar in color to the spot shrimp. It is different because the side-striped shrimp is much smaller, it does not have striped antennae, and it does not have the spots on its back. The side-striped shrimp was found in through dredging in Friday Harbor. It was about 5 inches long and ¾ of an inch wide.
