Mitten Crabs

Details
By Mark Corti

We recently received a request from the Natural History Museum via Mary Tate to be on the lookout for Mitten Crabs.

 

Mary writes as follows:

"Dear all,

 
I have recently been working with Natural History Museum in London regarding the mitten crab populations on the River Medway.
They have asked that I circulate this flier (attached) and encourage everyone to submit any mitten crab records that they have onto the website or by returning the filled in information on the record cards.
If you could also send this information to your members/any one else you think would be interested that would be a great help.
 
Many thanks in advance for your help.
 
Best wishes
 
Mary
