OZ snapping shrimps

Hi folks
I am taxonomist at the National Natural History Museum in Paris, France, and the University of Alberta, Edmonton, Canada.
I am searching for pictures of Australian snapping shrimps and other shrimps, especially from Western Australia and New South Wales, but also from elsewhere in Australia, New Zealand, PNG etc.
the pictures help me to identify the colour patterns, which may be very important for species identification, even if the specimen is not collected.
you can believe me, the taxonomy of Australian alpheids is still in poor state and needs a major revision.
anyway, if you have something interesting for me, please let me know ! my email: artour_a@yahoo.com
and if you want, I can help to identify your shrimp and crab critters, too
greetings from Canada
cheers
Art

Try the Australian Museum fish dept.

It may be helpful, but perhaps considering your field you may be aware of it already
