Our is the Necklaced Fiddler Crab, Uca monilifera, found only in the northern half of the Gulf of California.

A very large , with a carapace between 4-5 cm in breadth, it is easy to identify by the unique powder blue color; the large body size and somewhat unusual shape of the claw also help distinguish it within the range.
