Emerald Crab

How do you tell the sex of an Emerald Crab? [smiley=confused1.gif]
P.S. And I don't mean when they are haveing at it.

 

that one i dunno but that would be someting to find out ;D

 

if u find out let me know

 

I know how to tell on blue crabs (the ones you catch to eat). On the underside, from the back side of the crab toward the middle of the underside, the males have a skinny "triangle" and females have a much larger and wider "triangle". If I have time later, I'll upload a couple pictures.

here's some quick links:
