Decapoda (crabs, shrimps, lobsters)

Here is a species lists of crabs, shrimp, and lobsters (Crustacea: Decapoda). Because of the large numbers I will start with two posts. One will be shrimp, crayfish, lobsters, and others while the second will be the 'true' crabs.

Many of these are copies from Bug of the Day posts, but some are single. These are not all the figures, but these are all that are identifiable to the genus or species level.
