I needed to know what kind/name of crab on shore in Cozumel. I tried to find in books but not there. I took a picture last year. Thanks for your help.

Concur with Sally Lightfoot. Does say Pacific species, but I've seen these guys in the Atlantic and Caribe, and they're the same as the SL pix...
 
Wait until it molts, pat it in flower, dip it in egg wash, coat it in corn meal (w/ a little Emeral's), deep fry it, put it on a hogie with tarter sauce, lettuce and tomato...

...it's a Po' Boy Crab!! ...goes well with Lion fish cevice :D
 
yummy
They're a little scrawny for that, though...
 
Thanks very much for ID of crab. I interested about crab where from. I'll write it on my album.
