The five new species are described in Zootaxa. These crabs are semi-aquatic crabs, much like fiddler crabs who spend a part of their lives out of the water. All photos by Tejas Thackeray.

    I'm a passionate aquarist of over 30 years, a coral reef lover, and the blog editor for Advanced Aquarist. While aquarium gadgets interest me, it's really livestock (especially fish), artistry of aquariums, and "method behind the madness" processes that captivate my attention.
