#Mimilambrus Wileyi

Remember this post I made?

Well I'm back with something pretty special: Some pictures of the diagrams from said book! The book is Trinidad Naturalist Volume 2 No. 12, and it was published in November/ December of 1979!

[Image ID: Several diagrams of a crab, showing the closeup of the palps and claws. The paper is slightly brownish, showing that the book have considerable age. /End ID]

@revretch, @bogleech and maybe @vintagewildlife, I think you'll be interested in this? Especially since this book have interesting pictures in some of the articles as well.

@revretch not too sure if you'll be interested in this, since it's about a random decapod (specifically a crab), but I know you're an Entomologist (?) so have this random thing I found.

I managed to get a random nature magazine from 1970s that have a very detailed description and sketches of a (at that time) newly decovered species of crab! I can't believe I randomly got it at a book stall during a fair.

Specific specie is Mimilambrus Wileyi by the way!
