Coral Crab

  1. I noticed a few of these coral crabs in Manado, Indonesia and thought that the colours and patterns would make it easy to identify the species. Here's a couple of examples. Please let me know if you can help indentify the species.

  2. Nice photos Brian, I hadn't noticed how lovely their legs are before. I think it's the Red-Fingered Coral Crab - Tetralia rubridactyla

  3. Thanks Kaj. I thought the patterns on the legs looked different to Tetralia rubridactyla that I've seen elsewhere

    Maybe the Manado variety just have fancy leg patterns.
