Short description Μορφολογία
Carapace ovate; dorsal surface very smooth and convex. Color: uniform red to reddish brown, with irregular dark brown patches on the dorsal surface of carapace (Ref. 343). Pincers are stout and unequal in size (Ref. 128968).
Found under stones or cracks in coral reefs (Ref. 128968). Collected extensively for food in some areas (Ref. 343). May contain toxins that are undectectable in tests (Ref. 107779), and thus, may not be safe to eat (Ref. 128968). Found in the littoral to sublittoral zones (Ref. 77016). On rocky outcrops or coral reefs sheltering in crevices or under stones (Refs. 801, 9773). Reported to be mildly toxic (Ref. 103037). Benthic carnivore (Ref. 107079). Preys on tridacnids (Ref. 108392). Opportunistic scavenger. Feeds on plant material to benthic invertebrates (Ref. 9773).
