Photo 9 - closeup of carapace / Photo 10 - internal structure beneath carapace
Dead crab that washed ashore. The carapace had detached from the rest of the body and washed up separately, but its still a clear match in my eyes.
You can see how its last legs are modified (or flattened I guess) for swimming.

Today was the day i finally started researching for science... i think.
I had to identify each species that my advisor managed to find on a beach.
Tumblr media
They were collected in a beach which had rocks, on low tide, so some of the species collected were actually common from reefs.
Tumblr media
I went from the crabs first, because I thought they were the easiest ones to identify... boy i was wrong, just the brachyura identification of the coast of brazil had basically 800 pages, but this big one here was actually easier to id, because, for one, because of the slippers on their backs, they are surely what the brazilians call a "siri", so from the family Portunidae, to get the actual genre and species was a little bit tricky, basically, the males from the genre Callinectes have their telson in a T form (the book is very vague about what the hell is a T, but its their telson), you had to see little spikes they have around the eyes to determine the species, its probably a Callinectes danae
Tumblr media
its not their penice s btw,,,
Tumblr media
these are pistol shrimps, one of them had eggs with them, i'll have to study some Alpheidae (pistol shrimp superfamily) identifications so i can ID these ones.
The other ones were 2 Carcinus maenas and a bunch of Clibanarius crabs, that i won't show cuz they're pretty gory, because they were stuck in their shells and i had nothing to break the shells, so i had to yank them out (worst part of doing ids with crustaceans).
Tumblr media
also was a pain in the ass to look cleary throught the lenses of the macroscope, so i made a sketch based on what happened
Tumblr media
thats it....
