Paracerceis caudata (546029)
This isopod is an epifaunal resident of Gray's Reef. Generally, it is found on the surface of sponges, rocks, and tunicates, with reproduction even taking place in these areas. For example, a related species sets up breeding territories inside of sponges (where it's difficult for predators to get to), and the female travels to the male's territory to lay her eggs.
