An individual crustacean belonging to the anomura group, such as a hermit crab, porcelain crab, or coconut crab.
From anomura with the suffix '-an' denoting membership or belonging. Used in zoological classification.
Every hermit crab is essentially living as a fake crab in stolen real estate—they're the con artists of the ocean floor, with bodies so specialized for shell-living that they couldn't survive like normal crabs.
