Amphithoe lacertosa (English name)

... Hyale grandicornis (10-22mm long) looks like a sandhopper at first glance, but Melita dentata (about 20mm long) and Elasmopus japonicus (about 15mm long) are commonly found under rocks near the low tide line along the coasts of Japan, among the seaweeds. Amphithoe lacertosa (5-20mm long) is a common inhabitant of seaweed beds along the coasts of Japan, and Ceinina japonica (about 7mm long) damages kelp along the coast of Hokkaido. A deep-sea camera captured a huge species of 282mm long gathering around bait placed on the seabed at a depth of 5,304m off the northeast coast of Oahu, Hawaii.
