Calappa hepatica (Order: DECAPODA, Family: CALAPPIDAE) – A museum-quality hepatic box crab specimen in A1 condition, expertly dry-preserved and unmounted for collectors, educators, and natural history enthusiasts.
Calappa hepatica, commonly known as the hepatic box crab, is a distinctive and visually striking calappid crab widely distributed across the Indo-Pacific, from the Red Sea and East Africa through to the Pacific Islands. Members of the family Calappidae are immediately recognisable by their highly domed, box-like carapace and enlarged, flattened claws that fold neatly against the body — giving them their common name and a uniquely compact, sculptural appearance unlike any other crab family. The carapace of C. hepatica is beautifully ornamented with a distinctive pattern of granules and ridges, and its warm brownish-orange colouration makes it a particularly attractive display specimen. A remarkable and architecturally striking addition to any natural history collection.
Perfect for marine biologists, natural history collectors, educators, artists, interior designers seeking authentic cabinet-of-curiosities aesthetics, and anyone passionate about the remarkable diversity of the natural world.

This was part of a double order, same as my other review. I’m new to pinning as a hobby in my spare time. From what I can tell they’re good specimens with plenty of variety. My only gripe is that they didn’t come with ID but that wouldn’t stop me from ordering again. Hopefully ID can be added to future purchases.
As someone who’s just started pinning, I don’t know a lot. From what I can see they are good specimens with a good variety. Would definitely order again. My only gripe is that they don’t come with ID.
