New "Hairy Lobster" Crustacean Discovered and Classified

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the cuddly-fuzzy-dinner dept.

AviLazar writes "American-led divers discovered a new type of Crustacean, that resembles a lobster but has it's claws covered in 'sinuous, hair-like strands'. This species is so different, from other Crustacean's that it was classified with a new Family name: Kiwaida. Unfortunately for the Kiwaida, the AP is already using this blind creature and a salad plate in the same sentence."
