Blue Crab (Callinectes sapidus)

The Atlantic Blue Crab (Callinectes sapidus) is native to the eastern coasts of North and South America, where they are considered a delicacy. These predatory crabs have been found in the mediterranean and spreading throughout the area in recent decades. They are considered a very invasive species, feasting on many other marine life and are frequently found in waters in Corfu.

The Corfu Nature Website currently contains over 6,000 photographs of  more than 1,100 wildlife species found on Corfu.
