Found over sandy bottoms and in seagrass beds, of bays, lagoons, and coastal reefs. Striped body, blue green eyes.

Anomura crabs are considered false crabs, they have a longer abdomen and the back legs are modified or reduced so hardly noticeable.
These crabs include the hermit crabs and squat lobsters.

Hermit crabs change their shells regularly but only when they find a larger and newer shell to feel safe in!
