Abstract
Crustaceans are a remarkable group of shelled animals (arthropods) that thrive in almost all watery habitats, with a few even exploring land. This incredibly diverse group boasts over 65,000 species found across the globe. Sizes range from microscopic creatures a mere tenth of a millimeter long to gigantic crabs, lobsters, and isopods reaching lengths of 4 meters and tipping the scales at 20 kilograms.
