Yesterday (21.07.2026) found this species for the first time in the south-east Pelion. A new expansion to Greece.
Today I went again and found the nest, a complex of rocks in only about 20 cm water depth, and counted at least 32 crabs of all sizes and ages.
That means this species has expanded and established in the area. It won't be available for any reduction or elimination anymore.
