👉 Mesoptiliinae are a family of small, short-lived, and nocturnal animals that primarily inhabit the marine environment, including coral reefs, seagrass beds, and coastal wetlands. These animals have been known to be scavengers, feeding on various types of aquatic plants and animals. The term "mesoptiliinae" is derived from Greek terms meaning "short-legged," reflecting their slender bodies with short legs that are adapted for movement in the water column.
