crab

Description:

Dark colored crab, carapace about 25 mm wide.

Habitat:

Andaman sea.

Notes:

This small crab was clinging tightly to a floating bottle, that has spent some time in the water already, as is proven by the colony of Lepas anatifera around its bottom. Apparently the crab is using the bottle as a means of transportation. Anyone knows this species?
