In any study of hermit crabs, correct identification to species level is of considerable importance. Whereas a number of identification guides to this group have been published during the last 50 years, none can be considered comprehensive enough for identifying all species inhabiting the Northeastern Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean sea.

Following a general section on larval stages, this volume examines various species in more detail. It includes chapters on dromiacea, archaeobrachyura, parthenopina, oxyrhyncha, cancridae, brachyrhyncha and oxystomata.

Helps the reader to identify 42 crustacean species of commercial importance found in Europe during coastal explorations, fishing trips, displayed in public aquaria or available in restaurants, including selected freshwater crayfishes and deep-sea species. This book includes sections on the gross internal and external structure of these Crustacea.
