Anomalocaris ("unlike other shrimp", or "abnormal shrimp") is an extinct genus of radiodont, an order of early-diverging stem-group marine arthropods.. It is best known from the type species A. canadensis, found in the Stephen Formation (particularly the Burgess Shale) of British Columbia, Canada.
Anomalocaris was a mainly soft-bodied swimming predator which was gigantic for its time (up to 70 cm = 2¼ feet long; some later species were 3 times as long); the soft, segmented body had a pair of broad fin-like flaps along each side, except that the last 3 segments had a pair of fans arranged in a V shape.

H. saron, known from Maotianshan Shale in Yunnan, is first described in 1995 as Anomalocaris saron. [4] This species is only known from frontal appendages. There is a specimen (ELRC 20001) that is previously considered as whole body fossil of this species, [4] but later study shows that this specimen is not belonging to this species, and later given own genus Innovatiocaris.

There were more than 13,000 lenses in the largest eyes, which were over 3 cm in diameter. The individual lenses were large, with some exceeding 335 μm in diameter, which was possibly an adaptation to seeing in low-light waters. [2] The oral cone was triradial with three large plates, with the plates being studded with numerous tubercules. [1]
