Dintlha
The male uses a spoon-shaped arm to remove sperm from another male if he finds it in the female.1
It can change its colour to dark brown or purple when attacked or to blend in with its surroundings.1
Its white stripes reflect white light, while its dark stripes are tiny pigment sacs called chromatophores that it can flash.1
It buries itself in the sand during the day and keeps flicking sand over its body to stay hidden.1
Worm-like parasites called dicyemids live inside it and feed on its urine.1
Like many members of its order, the male usually dies after mating.1
