Just wanted to point out that "Crustacea" is a paraphyletic grouping of species, in the same way Theropoda is without the inclusion of Aves. Insects are more or less terrestrial "crustaceans".

I remember your thread about this from a few months back. This does not change that crabs are AWESOME. Perhaps we should rename this as a decapod thread, specifically?

I don't know exactly how I would react if I saw a coconut crab in person.

Pictures are one thing, but I'd probably get the willies.
