    I have a mystery crab that hitchhiked some time ago and is rarely seen (hides in the rock work).
    Below is a picture I took yesterday.
    Note that the legs are smooth (not hairy like an Emerald Crab).
    I have looked through hundreds of crab photos to try and identify, but have not yet found a match.
