However, studies with other species of stomatopods have found strong correlations ([r.sup.2] > 0.55) between components of the striking appendage (e.g., merus length, propodus and
dactylus size) and strike force (Claverie et al., 2010) or spring force (Zack et al., 2009; Claverie et al., 2011).

Distinguishing features: External face of palm and

Swimming leg abnormalityThe fifth walking leg, which is modified intopaddle for swimming, was found abnormal in a male crab of 85 mm SCW in which the last two segments, that is propodus and
dactylus, of the left swimming leg were deformed as shown in Figures5C and D.
Moreover, the same pattern was observed on the landmarks of the intersection on the base of the
dactylus and the articulation between the propodus and carpus.
