I again found the type of crab kerekeb and is one of the types of poisonous crab found in the waters of Aceh

This species of crab has long been known by the fishing community, there are dangerous toxins in this type of crab. starting from my findings on the beach this morning crab kerekeb term local name was thrown away and have rotted. it is clear that this type of crab is not in consumption .

I sat down to ask one of the fishermen, why dumped ... answer it, we do not eat it because it contains toxins and we do not let people eat. Apparently so did the traditional coastal fishermen who already know about the type of crab it has long been containing toxins.

believe them (from generation to generation). and finally, I support the testimony of the fishermen with various studies and the results of my reading is true what is believed by the crab fisherman is true to contain poison. Local fishermen call it crab keureukep or ceurekep.

talk about crab, usually crab (Scylla SPP.) or crab (Portunus pelagicus) .However, in fact the world as crabs, crab brachyura whether or anomura group.brachyura crab is set true, have four pairs of legs, the perfect motion, while Anomura is a bunch of crabs 'false', only have 3 pairs of legs fully developed movement - the fourth leg movements are very small or hard way.
of all species now known, is actually only just a crucial species that is contained in the crab body, the question then arises, crab any toxic? poison what is contained in the crab body then let's look at the ins and outs of these toxins in crabs.
