Tubuca flammula (Crane, 1975)
Tubuca flammula is a species of fiddler crab with characteristic claw size differences between sexes and distinct carapace markings.
Like other fiddler crabs, male Tubuca flammula have one significantly larger claw, while females have two smaller, equal-sized claws. This species has a black carapace with two parallel white or pinkish marks running front to back near its center, plus a solid red band across the front of the carapace. Its claws are bright red-orange, and its eyes are positioned close together.
