Coenobita rugosus is the rainbow crab of the hermit crab world. C. rugosus vary in colour depending on nutritional intake and common colours include green, brown and tan, but black, white, pink, and blue have also been observed. Latin Origins: from ruga “wrinkle” Common name: rug, ruga, ruggie Common identifiers: Eyes – elongated, stalks have a dark patch on the front surface, dark band behind the eyes . This is the only species that I've seen with an odd white crust on the inner eyestalk. Large claw – stitch marks, two dark patches separated with a white band Coloring – varies Chirps –yes http://coenobitaspecies.com/coenobita-rugosus/ #speciesspotlight #rugosus #hermitcrabs #hermitcrabsofinstagram #crabstigram #instacrab #instahermit #claws #pinchers #coenobita #lhcos #csj #crabstreetjournal #clawlife #shelllife #thoseeyestho #allaboutthatpincher #crabby #crabbysquad #properpetcare
Looks like another pair of mating #rugosus in the vertical tank. 💜 #hermitcrabs https://www.instagram.com/p/CADyGljApkV/?igshid=269k9xfuhpk9
The two #rugosus who moved in with the captive bred babies have mated and dropped eggs again! Twice since the moved in. Freshwater both times. Busy little buggers and that confirms @lhcsweden experience of rugosus mating multiple times a year. #hermitcrabs https://www.instagram.com/p/B_dzq5vpEFF/?igshid=1dr5vmvk5zoia
It was tank cleaning day! My phone decided not to focus 😒 but some pics of the crablets. #Rugosus #Cavipes #Violascens #Compressus #Clypeatus https://www.instagram.com/p/B2-n55hJf2s/?igshid=ragk0ydrye48
I don't have any photos of the full abdomen of rugosus :( The abdomen is short and fat. The pattern on the shield seems to be pretty standard. Diet: scavengers; will consume plants, dead fish, fruit and other detritus. Observed to eat algae and tortoise feces in the wild.[8] Preferred shells: shells with short spires. T. coronatus, Telebralia palustris used by only small rugosus 2, Various such as Turbo setosus, Achatina fulica, Nerita polita.

On the last pair of walking legs, on the second segment, it is flattened and the colour is lighter. Notice the ridge along the edge of leg which makes it appear armored. #speciesspotlight #rugosus #hermitcrabs #hermitcrabsofinstagram #crabstigram #instacrab #instahermit #claws #pinchers #coenobita #lhcos #csj #crabstreetjournal #clawlife #shelllife #thoseeyestho #allaboutthatpincher #crabby #crabbysquad #properpetcare
