small crab
coastal scrub
I spotted this small crab near the beach in Ujung Kulon national park. It was all tucked up when I got too close, so I gave it some distance and waited for him to come out again.

Thanks Albert.
This is a type of Hermit Crab - Paguroidea
There are more than one thousand species of them, can be difficult to get specific ID :(
