Moved to the category, Arthropods. :-)
But you can see how the legs are on the top not bottom. So it is most likely upside down.
might be.was around the bottom of the ocean for two days.I have seen acrab with awhite carapace but it was almost the size of a spider.This one was bigger and translucent.
That looks dead and upside down
