Mantis shrimps are found in warm or temperate waters around the world, but are ignored in some regions. The main European species is Squilla mantis, matched on the eastern seaboard of the USA by S. empusa. Both have a maximum length of 25 cm (10"), and the same applies to Harpiosquilla harpax, the most common of the various species in SE Asia. The largest Indo-Pacific species is H. raphidea (up to 35 cm/13").
