. Body subglobular, slightly longer than broad (1.0–1.1 times), breadth about same as distance from hind margin to base of rostrum. Posterior border moderately projecting, square-cut, bluntly angular laterally. Carapace relatively smooth medially, but some sparse low granules anteriorly; sparse clusters of microscopic granules laterally on cardiac region; branchial regions evenly, densely, microscopically granular. Anterolateral spines prominent, directed anteriorly upward (not divergent), apically subacute; region immediately posterior to anterolateral spines swollen but without clearly defined ridge continuing posteriorly to edge of anterior branchials; short minutely granular ridge ventrally from anterolateral spines to form lateral edge of ill-defined lower orbital margin. Carapace regions well-defined; branchial regions moderately swollen (markedly so in large mature males), clearly separated from posterolateral margins above ambulatory legs by broad sulcus; subhepatic regions visible dorsally, separated anteriorly by groove running posteriorly from about level of anterolateral spine. Eyestalks short, corneas globose with 1 or 2 short distal setae. Rostrum deflexed, distally triangular, upper surface broadly sulcate; about as long as broad. External maxillipeds as for genus.

Carpus with finely granular transverse striations; deep longitudinal sulcus running full length parallel to inner edge; superior margin with row of short setae that become closer towards articulation with chela; small brush of long setae medially on inner face about one-third from distal end; inner ventral margin with short, blunt, anteriorly directed distal spine. Palm broad; dorsal margin about 0.27 times total length of palm including fixed finger, about 0.4 times length of dactyl; fingers long, slender, broadly deflexed; dactyl with broad, flat-topped, elevated tooth over proximal third of cutting margin; both dactyl, immovable finger, otherwise unarmed; cutting margin of fixed finger with submarginal groove lined with short setae; dactyl with similar subdorsal setiferous groove.

Measurements taken from water in the holes where sediment cores were taken showed similar soil temperature and pH values (27–28°C; pH 7.34–7.89), but a markedly higher salinity (27–32‰).

(see Unno & Semenuik 2008). A few individuals often emerge from the burrow for a short period after the lowest tide, especially on sunny days; however, they stand still on the beach and do not congregate into groups. When touched, they pull the claws and walking legs close against their body, and remain motionless for between 1–10 minutes (

when feeding is finished. While a vertical hole is visible when examining the burrow structure at lowtide, it is likely that this is an emergence hole through the drier sand after the tide recedes, and that it is not present during high tide period. The “cork-screw” digging action when burrowing from the surface normally results in “back-filling” the hole, and normally leaves no surface evidence.

just below the surface. Along the horizontal burrow the processed faecal sand is accumulated and pushed-up to form the surface mound behind the crab. Within 1 to 2 hrs the sand mounds of adjacent crabs are sufficiently numerous that they combine to form extensive “hummocks” covering the area. This subsurface feeding phase takes place over 2 to 3 hrs until the beach is covered by the incoming tide.
