Common Shore Crab carapace, this shell reminds me of Samurai armour. There is a species of crab (Heikegani) that even more so resembles the faces of Samurai. It was believed that these crabs were reincarnations of the Heike (one of the foremost Samurai clans) warriors. New project for @pale.blue.dot.collective during the CV isolation.
