Description
Thinstripe hermit crab (Clibanarius vittatus) is a species of hermit crab that lives in the Caribbean Sea, the Gulf of Mexico, and the western parts of the Atlantic. Like other hermit crabs, it chooses and resides in discarded shells of sea gastropods. The thinstripe hermit crab is distinguished from its cousins by the white-grey stripes and streaks seen all over its body, especially the legs.
