Red Claw Crab
Parasesarma bidens
Adult red claw crabs live on intertidal mangrove shores and other sheltered brackish habitats. They are opportunistic omnivores, feeding on leaf litter, algae, detritus, and small animals. Males use their conspicuous red claws in visual displays and disputes while their hard carapace offers protection from many attackers.
