Place

Devonshire, BM (Google, OSM)

Description

One of 10 individuals counted today; likely dozens more. Their numbers and activity has significantly increased since my October 2023 survey. This suggests individuals leave the shallow pools during the winter months, when the waters are cooler, and return from the main ocean with the warming waters of the summer. Endemic to Bermuda.

A moult of a Verrill's Hermit Crab found at the bottom of the sea pool. This was one of 2 I found today. Never seen them before during previous surveys. This suggest this species might have a specific moulting season. More observations needed.

Description

Verrill's Hermit Crab (Calcinus verrillii) is endemic to Bermuda. Photos features the largest Verrill's I've ever seen, carrying a West Indian Top Shell (Cittarium pica). Its likely a large male. The shell was about 1 inch high and 1 inch wide. To my knowledge, this hermit crab has never been recorded carrying top shells before. This likely reflects how little these guys have been studied.
