Crayfish Super Grand Slam

Picked up a crayfish grand slam today, a red, ornate and a green. Then low and behold turned it into a super grand slam with the capture of a fourth unknown species. Can anyone shed some light on what type of the cray the second one from the right is?

Garlic Cray
Crayfish bisque
Crayfish salad with a twist of lemon and pine nuts.
You've probably never had bisque before hence why you didn't recongnise it.Wink

They all have there own unique flavour feral1975. Reds probably just edge out the painteds, but the painteds make up for it in the sheer volume of flesh available.
