Shame-faced crab, Curacao

Playa Grote Knip. Also called box crab. This crab was difficult to photograph because he kept trying to bury in the sand when I approached. An interesting aside: I saw one of these crabs on two different occasions. Each time, there was a peacock flounder right next to it. You can see the shadow of the founder at the upper left of this photo. This couldn't be a random chance thing; these two species must associate together at times.
