Their eight walking legs and two claws are long and narrow giving them a very spider-like appearance. Two or more vacuoles may coalesce. >

Libinia emarginata, the portly spider crab, common spider crab or nine-spined spider crab, is a species of stenohaline crab that lives on the Atlantic coast of North America. > Like all crabs, common spider crabs must molt in order to grow. The ecdysial glands of mature male Libinia emarginata are pale, yellowish organs composed of lobes of epithelial cells having oval nuclei which are often eccentric and which have one or two nucleoli containing amorphous granular material and coarse strands.

A description of rhabdovirus-like particles in the mandibular gland of the blue crab, Callinectes sapidus.

Wildflower Wednesday: Marsh St. Johnswort. Since they are slow, weak-clawed and unable to dig a burrow for safety, common spider crabs rely on their camouflage to provide some degree of protection from predators. A few Golgi complexes consisting of flattened sacs, cisternae or vesicles, lipid droplets and free ribosomes were seen. The ecdysial glands of mature male Libinia emarginata are pale, yellowish organs composed of lobes of epithelial cells having oval nuclei which are often eccentric and which have one or two nucleoli containing amorphous granular material and coarse strands. Their eight walking legs and two claws are long and narrow giving them a very spider-like appearance. section Eubrachyura Masses of smooth endoplasmic reticulum and associated vesicles are scattered throughout the cytoplasm. Production of methyl farnesoate by the mandibular organs of the mud crab, Scylla serrata: Validation of a radiochemical assay. Habitat: All types of benthos including estuaries, beaches, and bays. Because of this, males typically grow larger than females. Sister taxa: Libinia dubia, Libinia mbalavuensis, Libinia peruviensis, Libinia setosa Ecology: carnivore Learn more. This type of ultrastructure is associated with steroid‐secreting cells. Although this gives spider crabs a rather messy or dirty appearance, there are advantages to looking like a pile of mud or seaweed.

Larger vesicles lie close to the cell surface. The largest males can grow to have carapaces approximately 4 inches wide and leg spans up to almost a foot.
