Calappa cf gallus (Herbst, 1803)
40mm (body)

This is similar to the other one we are calling Calappa cf gallus, particularly in the striping of the eyes. However, there seem to be a few minor differences in the antennule color and surface of the chelipeds, so we are keeping them separate for now. It was on a rubble and muck slope near Tulamben.
