Sand Crab Socks

The dominant species in the swash zone is the hippid crab, Emerita analoga, commonly known as the sand crab. Emerita is a filter feeder, facing out to sea with only eyes and short first antennae exposed as a wave passes, then filtering the receding waves through its feathery second antenna, which it passes through its mouth to remove food particles. Sand crabs must be highly active, moving and reburying themselves frequently, to maintain their location on the beach.  Shipping Info
