Field Notes

Description:

Large 10-12 cm dark reddish brown crab, lighter on the bottom.

Habitat:

Found in a small stream in the Amazon rainforest of SE Ecuador (650 masl).

Notes:

I've found many small crabs. This is the first one this big. It is darker too, which could be because of age or a different species.
