Purple Climber Crab
寬額大額蟹
Metopograpsus frontalis
1/1
Usually found beneath and between large stones within intertidal areas.
通常在潮間帶的大石下和岩石縫隙中活動
Has a smooth, flattened carapace and pointed walking legs allowing it to crawl around the shore quickly. A "tooth-like" ridge is on the side of the carapace next to each eye.
光滑扁平的頭胸甲和尖尖的步足使牠們能在岸邊敏捷爬行；另外頭胸甲上每隻眼睛的旁邊都有一個「齒狀」的脊
Both a fearsome predator and opportunistic scavenger on the shore.
既是可怕的掠食者，又是投機的岸上食腐動物
Where to find?
