Qabru (Potamon fluviatile lanfrancoi) which is endemic to Malta is a freshwater crab that lives near running water and muddy terrain. This specimen is covered in mud probably after a hard working day digging a shelter or finding food. This is a rare animal on the island as it is mostly found in valleys near Bahrija.
