Los cangrejos Brachyura pertenecientes a la Superfamilia Majoidea, se conocen con el nombre común de cangrejos araña los cuales se caracterizan por presentar el segundo segmento de la antena bien desarrollado y usualmente fusionado con el epistomio y a menudo con la frente. [Estos cangrejos] se encuentran ampliamente distribuidos en todos los mares del mundo [y], al contrario de la mayoría de los cangrejos, presentan adaptaciones fisiológicas que les permiten detener el proceso de la muda después de la madurez sexual. 1, record 1, Spanish, - cangrejos%20ara%C3%B1a
