Maximum depth range from Ref. 101396. Maximum carapace width: 8.4; common carapace width: 5.5 cm (Ref. 435). Common in shallow waters from the intertidal to 80 m (Ref. 83653), common at depths not deeper than 40 m (Ref. 435). Found mostly in rocky shores, confined to the lower tidal mark (Refs. 101396). Inhabits on sand or mud (Ref. 435). Carnivore; trophic level 2.6 (Ref. 96418), trophic level 2.98 (Ref. 435). An opportunistic feeder, mostly preys on molluscs and crustaceans and also feeds on detrital material and large quantities of brown algae (Ref. 96482).
Members of the order Decapoda are mostly gonochoric. Mating behavior: Precopulatory courtship ritual is common (through olfactory and tactile cues); usually indirect sperm transfer.
