#2532 - Notomithrax ursus - Hairy Seaweed Crab
A Majid crab native to SE Australia and New Zealand, where they live from the intertidal zone down to about 75m. Crabs in shallower water attach pieces of seaweed to the hooked hair covering their body, for camoflage.
Slow-moving scavengers and omnivores, eating dead animals, seaweed (including their own disguise, sometimes) and mouthing on pieces of gravel.
Pariwhero, Wellington, New Zealand

#Grancevola e #peoci it’s a typical Venetian crab with mussels from the serie “views from the Venice lagoon”. this is a view you can get in Venice only if you dive, under the water there are thousands of creatures people can’t see, I’ve decided to paint them rather then take a picture. #majidae #majasquinado #granchio #cozze #freediving #venezia #laguna #faunalagunare #30175 #marghera (presso Adrenalink Tattooing) https://www.instagram.com/p/CPm-6GYL5Qm/?utm_medium=tumblr
#2816 - Jacquinotia edwardsii - Southern Spider Crab
New Zealand's largest crab - up to 1m in legspan. They're abundant around Aotearoa's subantarctic islands, where they can be found in densities of up to 10 crabs per square metre. Males forage on mussels and probably other shellfish, while females are detritus feeders, and juveniles feed on drift algae.
Despite several attempts, there is no established fishery for the crabs, which are now usually caught as bycatch by squid vessels.
Fossils some 1.8myo found on the North Island are not only evidence of their wider range in the past, but also of how rapid the uplift of the area has been - since they're now 1km above sea-level, the average rate of vertical movement must be at least 0.6mm a year.

ONSCREEN CREDIT - @atsushisadaki An underwater photographer has captured footage of a crab using some seaweed to camouflage itself. Atsushi Sadaki, 63, from Japan, filmed the video in the Lembeh Strait, Indonesia, in September 2021. In the video, a crab is seen feeding on the seafloor while wearing bits of seaweed all over its body. One user commented on the video, saying: “This is fascinating!”
