Periclimenes dardanicola chiefly white, with red along the edges of the carapace and the abdominal somites. The legs are transparent yellow, with red bands. "P. dardanicola" is associated with the sea anemone "Calliactis", which is carried by hermit crabs of the genus "Dardanus", including "Dardanus arrosor", "D. crassimanus", "D. lagopodes" and "D. pedunculatus". This is one of the few examples of ecological associations between two species of decapod crustaceans. Specimens of "Periclimenes dardanicola" have been collected from various locations in the western Pacific Ocean, namely Suruga Bay (Japan), Vietnam, and Borneo (Indonesia). Although only formally described in 2006, this species has been
Nephilengys upon by the spider-eating jumping spider "Portia". At least some species shake their bodies vigorously when touched. Nephilengys Nephilengys is a genus of tropical spiders of the family Araneidae, consisting of two currently described species. (The genus was formerly placed in the Nephilidae and Tetragnathidae.) The genus "Nephilingis" has been split off from this genus. Both genera have been called hermit spiders from the habit staying in their retreats during the day; the name eunuch spiders has been used for "Nephilengys" alone. Males may sever parts of their palpal bulbs after copulation. Females are from 10 mm to 28 mm
