Field Notes

Description:

Species difficult to narrow down due to the fact that this crab's claws are hidden. But judging from the habitat it was found, it may likely be E. singaporense (Singapore vingear crab). The other Episesarma species prefer to be nearer the seaward areas.

Habitat:

chek jawa, mangrove, near lobster mound
