Hepatic box crab (Eng) – Calappa hepatica (Lat) (family Calappidae) – grows up to 10 cm (typically 7-8 cm). Feeds on small benthic invertebrates, mollusks. Inhabits coral reef at shallow depths. This crab is rarely seen by divers because he is a great camouflage master and may take the form of any stone
