USO - Unidentified Swimming Object

[ssstefano]

Number one has stumped me for a couple of years now.
1) Taken on a night dive on Davis Reef in Key Largo...any ideas?
Here are a couple more that I can't seem to find a name for...
2) Green Critter Some type of Shrimp maybe - night dive in Belize
3) Another shrimp? It's kinda clear in the image...can't figure it out.

Looking forward to hearing you guys thoughts!

#1 is unlike anything I've ever seen! I'm betting a larval something-or-other...
#2 & 3 are both shrimp I think, but which ones???
So... you're right where you started, and I have three new mysteries on my list

Thanks Uncle Ricky

At least I don't feel so bad for being unable to identify the critters!

Number one is a polychaete worm - some kind of Amblyosyllis sp., I think...

That looks right. Neat. Gotta find one

Vie's right, the 1st is a polychaete in the genus Amblyosyllis and it's and adult swollen with gametes. That particular species is quite widespread in the Caribbean.
Green shrimp is Neopontonides chacei or something similar. Last shrimp is Periclimenes rathbunae.
