Aratus pisonii

''Aratus pisonii'', commonly known as the mangrove tree crab, is a species of crab which lives in mangrove trees in tropical and subtropical parts of the Americas, from Florida to Brazil on the Atlantic coast, and from Nicaragua to Peru on the Pacific coast. It feeds mostly on the leaves of the mangroves, but is an omnivore, and prefers animal matter when possible. ''A. pisonii'' is the only species in the monotypic genus ''Aratus''.〔 The specific epithet ''pisonii'' commemorates the Dutch naturalist Willem Piso who travelled in Brazil in 1638 with Georg Marggraf.
==Description==
The mangrove tree crab is a small species with males averaging about long and females slightly less. The large eyes are set far apart and the carapace is wider at the front than at the back. It is a mottled brown and olive colour which helps the crab to blend in with its surroundings. The legs are either brown or mottled and there are tufts of black hairs near their tips. These are pointed which aids the crab when climbing among the mangrove foliage.
