Coenobita Brevimanus

Meet the Indonesian hermit crab!! While they may look similar to other species of terrestrial hermit crab, they have one distinct feature; that incredible pincer! All hermit crabs have one large mating pincer and one small, however the Indo crab takes it to a new extreme! The mating pincer is extremely large, short, and round. Even their name, brevi- meaning short and -manus meaning hand, describes their epic feature. Indos are one of the larger species of terrestrial hermit crabs, capable of reaching leg-spans of 6 inches.

Unlike other terrestrial hermit crabs which stick near the beaches, Indo crabs are normally found under the leaves and logs of the forest floor, only returning to the ocean to mate or occasionally feed.

found a cool bug! not pictured: me crawling around on the floor for 10 minutes, trying to pick it up to get it away from the middle of the path so nobody would step on it

[ID: Three pictures of a small beetle sitting on a hand. The beetle has tiny feathered antennae and is half shiny dark-green and half brown. It might be a Mönchs-Kotkäfer (Onthophagus coenobita).]

Captain Tarriel Eleonora Corvinius' trophies from a hunting expedition on Ranur Major that was being attacked by a minor hive fleet designated Coenobita by the Magos Biologis accompanying her. The head of Carnifex was presented to her by Uraess, her sslyth bodyguard. It is rumored that she later rewarded him handsomely for it. It is also rumoured that the expedition had other motivations as well, something about gathering fresh biological matter for various, possibly proscribed, genetical experiments conducted onboard the Captain's ship. The planet, and the Ranur system itself, was later spared annihilation by the combined efforts of Navy, Guard and Space Marine forces.

A gift for a @norkoartstuff and his Rogue Trader OC that took far longer to do than I had perhaps anticipated.

The shields were probably the biggest hassle. It took me more times than I would like to admit to get those just right, and even then the one for the warrior didn't end up being the shape I had originally intended for it. If I were to make more of them I'd probably just get them printed and painted faux wood instead. Would saved me a lot of grief for sure. Or befriend someone with the proper tools than just a figure saw and some sandpaper.

In contrast the painting went off without a hitch, following the Blue Coconut Crab paint scheme video. Mainly because I had the paints for it. Even if I did end up buying some synthetic brushes for it, also never really did get the correct paint consistency down so they got a bit uneven. I think I did mess up the washa little, both in terms of application and mixing. One thing is for sure, I would not do this scheme for a complete army. That'd drive me bonkers. Even if I still have some bug juice wash left over.

Fishuary Day #09 & #10 - Manta Ray and Hermit Crab! I know I'm a little behind on the daily prompts but I plan to keep going! The Hermit Crab is based on a species named the Coenobita Lila, my version came out a bit too bright but they have very nice purple-pink coloring and are very cute

Thanks to @fish-daily for the prompts! 𓆝 𓆟 𓆞 𓆝 𓆟

You've talked a bit about your favorite centipedes and arachnids, do you have a favorite millipede? I get super tiny ones in my apartment in the PNW and they're always my favorite bugs to see.

I don't pick favorites, so here are some pretty millipedes from Earth

What is a hermit crab?

What is a hermit crab?

A hermit crab is a decapod crustacean. The land hermit crab belongs to the family Coenobitidae which consists of two species: Birgus latro and Coenobita. The term decapod means 10 legs. Only 3 pairs of appendages are visible when the hermit crab is in the shell. The smaller appendages are used to hold the shell and for grooming. Ready to learn more?
