Observed approximately 6 individuals attached to a mesh net that was in a trash collecting in-water seabin. These were adhering to the net along with other debris and marine vegetation in the dark cave-like internal part of the equipment where a suction pump constantly sucks in water. Note the hook/praying mantis-like claws of the forelimbs

Observation for the small plants? seaweed? sticking up out of the sand that kind of looks like a nail head, but it has an indent it (like a flat head screw). They are yellowish. Some of them have a peak on top (raised part). This is in a saltwater marsh with tidal flow, on a low tide day.
