The hermit crab is an anomuran decapod crustacean of the superfamily Paguroidea. There are more than 800 species, most of which have an asymmetrical abdomen protected by a shell.
Hermit crabs' soft abdominal exoskeleton means they must occupy shelters produced by other organisms or risk becoming helpless. Adapted to occupy empty mollusk shells
