Because of their large size and the taste of their meat, many species are widely caught and sold as food, the most common being the red king crab ("Paralithodes camtschaticus"). King crabs are generally thought to be derived from hermit crab-like ancestors, which may explain the asymmetry still found in the adult forms. This ancestry is supported by several anatomical peculiarities which are present only in king crabs and hermit crabs. Although some doubt still exists about this theory, king crabs are the most
Long-billed hermit protein. Hatchlings are fed by the female with regurgitated invertebrates. Long-billed hermits are trap-line feeders; they do not defend territory, but visit seasonal flowers on routes through the forest up to 1 km long.
