Palaemonetes antennarius is distributed along the mediterranian coast. A demersal species as far as i know, so hope not. But closest yet, and may be. I do however think this may be an undescriped Palaemonetes species, and I am willing to settle for that. Have to go to bed now, I think. Looking forw...

A latin name will be deeply appreciated here, as that will ease my search to compare pictures and info.
