Sand Bubbler Crab
中型股窗蟹
Scopimera intermedia
1/2
Has a small, round body under 1 cm in size.
體型小，寬達 1 厘米，呈球形
Sieves through the organic matter in the sand and leaves behind round sand pellets, hence its English common name Sand Bubbler Crab. Its characteristic radial pattern of sand pellets found on the shore is a way to identify its presence.
有「沙泡蟹」之英文俗稱，覓食時會過濾沙中的有機物，吐出圓形的沙粒，因而得名；在海岸上的放射狀沙粒圖案，是識別這種螃蟹的典型特徵
The presence of a tympanic membrane, which aids gaseous exchange, on the merus (thigh) of each walking leg is the key feature of the sand bubbler crab and hence its Chinese name “Merus Window Crab” (股窗蟹).
每條步足的大腿上都有有助於氣體交換的鼓膜（merus），因此被命名為「股窗蟹」
