Common crab
Common crab. Top view of the Common or Rock crab, (Cancer pagurus) also known as the Edible crab for its tasty meat. It is coloured red-brown on top with a yellow-white underside, the claw tips on its powerful pincers are black. The Common crab is a relative of the swimming crabs but lacks flattened paddles on its hind limbs and consequently it is only a moderate swimmer. It prefers to eat mussels but also feeds on worms, other molluscs, algae and carrion. It lives mostly around the shore on stone and gravel bottoms, ranging from the coasts of Norway, Britain, France and Portugal, through to the Mediterranean
