Common crab
Common crab. Top view of the Common or Rock crab, (Cancer pagurus) also known as the Edible crab for its tasty meat. Coloured red-brown on top with a yellow-white underside, the claw tips on its powerful pincers are black. The Common crab is a relative of the swimming crabs but lacks flattened paddles on its hind limbs and consequently it is only a moderate swimmer. It prefers to eat mussels but also feeds on worms, other molluscs, algae and carrion. It lives mostly around the shore on stone and gravel bottoms, ranging from the coasts of Norway, Britain, France and Portugal, through to the Mediterranean

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable Common crab, also known as the Rock crab or Edible crab due to its delectable meat. With its vibrant red-brown color on top and a contrasting yellow-white underside, this creature is truly a sight to behold. The black-tipped pincers add an extra touch of elegance to its appearance. Belonging to the same family as swimming crabs, the Common crab possesses powerful pincers but lacks flattened paddles on its hind limbs, making it only a moderate swimmer. Its preferred diet consists mainly of mussels but it also indulges in worms, other molluscs, algae, and carrion. Found predominantly along the shorelines with stone and gravel bottoms across Norway, Britain, France, Portugal, and even extending into the Mediterranean region; this resilient crustacean has adapted well to various environments. This stunning photograph not only highlights the beauty of nature's creations but also serves as a reminder of our intricate ecosystem. As we marvel at this magnificent specimen captured by Science Photo Library's lens experts in all its glory - let us appreciate the diversity that exists within our wild life and continue striving towards preserving these invaluable treasures for generations to come.
