Le #crabe mantou vit entre la Floride, toute la #Caraïbe et le Brésil, dans la #mangrove où il creuse des terriers pouvant atteindre 75 cm de profondeur, jusqu'à la nappe phréatique.

La dernière fiche (de la journée !) sera pour un joli #crustacé #décapode, visible en gros entre la mer Rouge et l'Afrique de l'est jusqu'à la Nouvelle Calédonie et les Fidji : 🎺 voici la #langouste-porcelaine !

Vom Hummer über die Garnele bis zu Krebsen, die Knallgeräusche verursachen: Heinz-Dieter Frankes Kulturgeschichte der Krebse ist so unterhaltsam wie lehrreich. Eine Rezension

Heinz-Dieter Franke ist ein wunderbares und wunderbar vielfältiges Buch über Krebse gelungen, das auch ihre ökologische Bedeutung beleuchtet.

In addition to Nikon's Small World photography contest, there is another contest called "The Close-up Photographer of the Year" [https://www.cupoty.com/]. From that contest, I share with you some caprellid amphipods taken by Viktor Lyagushkin. #arthropoda #crustacea #amphipoda #photography

On the 31th and final day of #Crustmas my true love gave to me the fossil Rosagammarus minichiellus McMenamin et al 2013 from the Triassic Luning Formation in Nevada. This particular fossil has had an interesting path of reinterpretation. Buckle up!

On the 28th day of #Crustmas my true love gave to me the fossil talitrid amphipod Caecorchestia bousfieldi Hegna & Lazo-Wasem in Hegna et al 2020. Yes, I was somewhat involved in naming this one . . .
The cool thing about this amphipod is that it is preserved in amber. Typically, we associate amber with trees. And, we associate amphipods with water. How could these two meet? #crustacea #arthropoda #amphipoda #malacostraca #fossil
