”Purple Crab’
by: Bon Bernardo
 
Insulamon Palawanense is species of freshwater crab from the Philippines described in 2012.[1][2] They are 2.5–5.3 centimetres (1.0–2.1 in) wide and are a striking purple colour. The species was described by Hendrik Freitag of the Senckenberg Museum of Zoology in DresdenGermany, having previously been included in a wider circumscription ofI. unicorn.[1] The species is endemic to the island of Palawan, where it has a wide distribution.[2] The striking iridescent purple coloration may help the crabs to recognise others of its species,[2] or may serve no purpose.[3]

Octo found the divers’ goggles and was very much curious what it does, since the octopus is the only invertebrate which has been shown to use tools he tried it on for size and it fit!
