Decapod anatomy Decapod anatomy The decapod crustacean, such as a crab, lobster, shrimp or prawn, is made up of 20 body segments grouped into two main body parts, the cephalothorax and the pleon (abdomen). Each segment may possess one pair of appendages, although in various groups these may be reduced or missing. They are, from head to tail: The head also bears the (usually stalked) compound eyes. The distal portion of a mandible or maxilla which has a sensory function is known as a palp. Maxillipeds are appendages modified to function as mouthparts. Particularly in the less advanced decapods, these can be
White-browed hermit the very similar Reddish Hermit ("Phaethornis ruber") which generally occurs at lower elevations, and identification criteria between the two species is still not well known. White-browed Hermit may be slightly paler with more bronze coloration in the tail. The range extends along the base of the Andes from central Peru south to central Bolivia, in an elevational band from 350 m to 1400 m. The species is generally encountered most often within forest interior, although individuals occasionally forage along forest edge. Like most hummingbirds, it feeds mostly on nectar from a variety of flowers, but also consumes some small insects.
