Uca flammula
Various sizes from 2 cm to 7cm, some completely black and some with various dark orange/red patterns
In the mud, in the mangroves
Thank you LauraMaria! It was an amazing view, so many orange crabs around me. Love them!
Cool, it's a fiddler crab so in the Uca genus, and I would be pretty confident in saying it's Uca flammula since that colouration is pretty distinctive! Nice photos, what cool looking crabs!
