Crabs (122)

General descriptionCrabs are the common name for any of a group of crustaceans characterized by a reduced abdomen and an enlarged and broadened anterior portion of the body. Mainly marine, some crabs live in fresh water or on land. Crabs are divided into two groups: true crabs (about 4500 species) and hermit crabs and their allies (about 1400 species).
