Field Notes

Notes:

Does anyone know what this is? Looks like some sort of crab, with a platypus type tail, and two blue fangs. I found two that day, washed up with the seaweed on the island of Coronado, just outside of San Diego, CA.

It does look like part of a species of large crab. I have moved this to the Arthropods section for you.
