Shore crab, SEM
Common shore crab. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a juvenile common shore crab, Carcinus maenas. The common shore crab is a relative of the swimming crabs (family Portunidae), but it lacks flattened paddles on its hind limbs, and consequently it is only a moderate swimmer. Its forelimbs are powerful pincers. The common shore crab feeds on worms, molluscs, algae and carrion. It lives mostly around the shore. Its range extends from Norway through the Mediterranean to the northern Atlantic coasts of Africa

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of a juvenile common shore crab, Carcinus maenas. The coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) allows us to appreciate the beauty and complexity of this invertebrate creature. Belonging to the family Portunidae, the common shore crab is closely related to swimming crabs but lacks flattened paddles on its hind limbs, making it only a moderate swimmer. However, what it may lack in swimming ability, it compensates for with its powerful forelimbs that serve as formidable pincers. Living predominantly along the shoreline, this versatile crustacean feeds on worms, molluscs, algae and carrion. Its range spans from Norway through the Mediterranean all the way to the northern Atlantic coasts of Africa. The image provides an up-close look at this fascinating creature's exoskeleton and appendages. Every tiny detail is meticulously captured by cutting-edge SEM technology employed by Science Photo Library. Whether you are interested in nature or zoology or simply captivated by wild life photography, this print offers a glimpse into the world of these remarkable creatures that inhabit our shores.
