Female crabs possessed more species of parasites and symbionts, and had a more specialized fauna than did male crabs. Gas exchange through the lungs and gills in air breathing crabs. P. pelagicus is, however, easily distinguished because it have 4 frontal teeth (3 in P. trituberculatus) and it have 3 spines in the merus of chelipeds (4 in P. trituberculatus). The results showed there were positive relationships between dry body weight with gill surface area, total number of platelets and number of platelets surface area in each gill.
