Gray's Rock Crab (Geograpsus grayi) | Dry-Preserved Taxidermy Specimen

A dry-preserved taxidermy specimen of Geograpsus grayi, commonly known as Gray's Rock Crab — a robust, fast-moving shore crab found across the Indo-Pacific, from East Africa and the Red Sea through South and South-East Asia to the Pacific Islands. This species inhabits rocky intertidal zones and sea cliffs, where it navigates vertical surfaces with remarkable agility. Its carapace is handsomely marked with a smooth, slightly convex form and characteristic grapsid squarish outline.

Dry-preserved to a high standard, this specimen retains excellent structural integrity and natural colour, making it a compelling addition to any natural history or marine invertebrate collection.
