- Intertidal Zone
The Atergatis integerrimus, commonly known as the red egg crab, closely resembles the edible crab in appearance. But unlike the edible crab, red egg crabs are highly toxic due to their diet and cannot be consumed. The "integerrimus" in its name describes its "whole and complete" shape. For such a toxic crab species, perhaps "wholesome" isn't quite the right description. If we are to rename it based on characteristics, then perhaps it should be "Atergatis periculosus" instead.
