European spider crab - Maja squinado

European spider crab, Maja squinado (spiny spider crab, or spinous spider crab). This crustacean of the Majidae family was very common about thirty years ago, and specimens like the one we see in the video were very easy to find in the intertidal tidal pools, provided they had plenty of rocks to hide in and algae to grow on their backs to camouflage them from predators. ...

Special mission mediterranean Spiny Lobster

It is late August and Summer is the period in which many marine organisms prepare for procreation. We have therefore decided to reach a deep Mediterranean coral reef, over 7 miles from the coast. The procreation have pushed these crustaceans to gather at the same time and in the same place. Procreation, in fact, occurs at the end of the Summer and in the Winter the larvae are born, which immediately reach the seabed that will host them for the rest of their lives.

Blue Crab invasion

In Italy, public awareness of the detrimental impact of this species on local molluscs is rapidly growing and, especially in the Po delta area and on the Adriatic sea coast, eradication efforts are undergoing, both by local authorities and by local fishermen. From the 2000s until 2023 the species was reported throughout Italy. We met her, Callinectes sapidus, in Rosignano Solvay in the Province of Livorno where we took the photos and video you are seeing.

Galathea - Galathea squamifera

We are in one of the many underwater caves of the Mediterranean Sea where the colors of the red coral, Corallium rubrum and Yellow cluster anemone, Parazoanthus-axinellae, explode in a splendid show that we can only find in caves. However, the caves are also the ideal habitat for many species of crustaceans such as the Galathea, Galathea squamifera, and the cave crab, Herbstia condyliata. ...
