Crab SPIDER from Philippines glass box

The Maja squinado, commonly known as the spider crab, inhabits the shallow waters of the Philippines. Recognizable by its long slender legs and narrow body, this crustacean is known for its ability to camouflage itself by covering its body with algae and debris to evade predators. A strategy that perfectly showcases the cunning of marine life.
In its natural habitat, this crab moves slowly along the seabed, feeding on small invertebrates and organic matter while contributing to the ecosystem through its role as an underwater cleaner.
To highlight this fascinating creature, it has been presented in an oval display case with beveled glass.
A perfect piece to rekindle your interest in the marine world.
