A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Borneo is full of unique and mysterious wildlife. I will be posting wildlife documentations done by my NGO - 1StopBorneo Wildlife.
Sabah, Malaysia
Sign In to followWelcome! A crab expert who followed Nicky Bay's photo expedition to Tawau photographed this too and identified it as Geosesarma sabanum in his research paper.
Indeed it is a weird name but this name is more accurate than the more used common name "white fig" which is confusing.
Welcome Sukanya. Glad you enjoyed this new knowledge. More figs to come!
Thanks Neil. Now you know about it :-)
You are welcome Jae. It is still a great hunter indeed whatever the size is.
Everyone can do extensive ID research. You don't have to be a ranger! Haha. But really good to have one more species resolved in PN. Thousands more to go.

This one was really dry and lack of flesh so I didn't try tasting it. I usually try the juicy and fleshy ones.
Finally this bug got a name! This calls for celebration Jolly!
