North Atlantic Crab & Sea Stars DSC_6852FL
Add to LightboxI first labeled this as an Atlantic Rock Crab but now think it is a Jonah Crab (Cancer borealis) because of its chunky claws. The two species are very similar. Pastel colored Boreal Sea Stars feed on Barnacles along with the immature crab in Maine.
