Brachyura

Ny Brachyura dia zafim-pilaharan' ny Decapoda, izay manana tongotra dimy ankavia sy dimy ankavanana, ny roa eo aloha dia niova ho lasa fiketohana, manana harany somary fisaka, kibo fohy toy ny rambo, matetika miafina ao ambanin' ny tratrany. Tsy afangaro ny Brachyura (foza na drakaka tena izy) sy Anomura (indrindra fa ny Paguroidea). Miaina any amin’ ny ranomasimbe rehetra eran-tany, na amin’ ny ranomamy ary amin’ ny tany izy ireo. Amin' ny ankapobeny dia rakotra karana ivelany matevina izy ireo. Nipoitra voalohany izy ireo manodidina ny 200 tapitrisa taona lasa izay.
