Abstract
L. dehaani belongs to the suborder Pleocyemata and the family Dromiidae. The species is distributed in the Indowest Pacific region and in India distribution is along both east and west coasts. Crab is known to camouflage itself by carrying something above it such as a piece of sponge, a shell of similar dimensions or leaves with a clear preference for sponges (Morton, 1989) and hence are commonly known as sponge crabs.
