Very nice and interesting crab from the Indo-Pacific. Such preparations are very difficult to clean so cleanly. In the sea, the animals are completely overgrown by algae, sponges and other molluscs. This is not least their camouflage.
The installation of the zoological specimen in the front glazed frame was made in a German taxidermy studio.
