EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the striking features of a male helmet crab, scientifically known as Corystes cassivelaunus. Found in the depths of 10-20 metres in the Atlantic Ocean, Mediterranean Sea, and Adriatic Sea, this species exhibits distinct sexual dimorphism. The males possess longer and stronger claws compared to their female counterparts. These impressive appendages serve multiple purposes - they are used for combat against rival males and also aid in gripping onto females during mating. The black background beautifully accentuates the intricate details of this primitive creature's anatomy. With a carapace measuring 4cm wide, it is evident that every aspect of its structure has evolved perfectly to thrive underwater. This marine arthropod belongs to the crustacean family and boasts an exoskeleton primarily composed of calcium carbonate. From an aerial perspective, we can observe a single leg extending from above its body while being cut out from any surrounding distractions. Such precise focus allows us to appreciate the biological marvels present within this unique specimen. This photograph not only appeals to enthusiasts interested in zoology or marine biology but also captures the attention of anyone fascinated by wildlife photography. It serves as a testament to nature's diversity and reminds us of how remarkable our planet truly is.
