Description ''Libinia emarginata'' is roughly triangular in outline and very heavily calcified, with a carapace about long and a leg span of . The whole crab is khaki, and the carapace is covered in spines and tubercles, and, as with other decorator crabs, often clothes itself in debris and small invertebrates. Reproduction Mating takes place, and eggs are produced from June to September. The eggs are initially a bright orange-red, but turn brown during development, which takes around 25 days. The eggs then hatch as zoea larvae, and the female can produce another brood of eggs within 12 hours, unlike many other crab species ...

	Libinia Ferreirae ''Libinia ferreirae'' is a species of tropical spider crab in the family Epialtidae. It is found on the seabed in shallow waters off the Atlantic coast of South America. Description Like other spider crabs, ''Libinia ferreirae'' has a roughly circular spiny carapace that extends forwards into a rostrum between the two, stalked eyes. It has five pairs of walking limbs. Distribution ''Libinia ferreirae'' is found off the Atlantic coast of South America in the intertidal zone and at depths down to about . The range extends from Venezuela and the Guianas, through parts of Brazil to Uruguay. Biology The larvae of ''Libinia ferreirae'' are planktonic and have one prezoeal stage, two zoeal stages and one megalopa stage. The carapace of the zoea has one short rostral and one curved dorsal spine and some of the abdominal segments have spiny projections. The post-larval megalopa has a downturned rostrum, a carapace with various protuberances and four pairs of abdominal appendages. Ecol ...

	Libinia Dubia ''Libinia dubia'', the longnose spider crab, is a species of crab in the family Epialtidae. It is found in shallow waters on the eastern coast of North America. Description The carapace of the longnose spider crab is nearly circular in outline. The shell grows to an average diameter of with the males being larger than the females. There are about six spiny protuberances on each edge of the shell and another six down the midline. The upper surface is covered with short setae (bristles) which are hooked and resemble velcro. To these the crab sticks pieces of seaweed and other organisms as camouflage. There are two small stalked eyes and between these the carapace extends forward in a forked rostrum. There are five pairs of long, thin, jointed walking legs. The front pair end in rather small pincers and the terminal joint of the others legs is a curved claw. The longnose spider crab may be confused with the portly spider crab, ''Libinia emarginata'', but that species usually has nin ...
