Fingers crossed it’s going on a heart shaped wood panel they’re commissioning another paintinn on a heart of a bunch of mushrooms! I’m super excited about that one too can’t wait! 😭🌿✨

Flower Crab (Portunus pelagicus) with Parasitic Barnacle (Diplothylacus sinensis) Changi, 8th January 2017

The yellow capsules on the underside of the Flower Crab are egg sacs of a Parasitic Barnacle that has infected it, and lives as an internal parasite. It's not known if the death of this Barnacle and its Crab host were connected to the oil spill that has affected parts of Changi's shores.

The Parasitic Barnacle (Diplothylacus sinensis) is referred to in some references as Thompsonia dofleini, a synonym.
