Hermit crab crab has several long spines, a long, narrow abdomen, and large fringed antennae. Several zoeal moults are followed by the final larval stage, the megalopa. Hermit crabs are often seen as a "throwaway pet" that would live only a few months, but species such as "Coenobita clypeatus" have a 23-year lifespan if properly treated, and some have lived longer than 32 years. Hermit crabs are more closely related to squat lobsters and porcelain crabs than they are to true crabs (Brachyura). However, the relationship of king crabs to the rest of Paguroidea is a highly contentious topic. Many studies based
Hermit (hummingbird) notably SACC, which consider both "T. niger" and "T. leucurus" as valid species. Additionally, Mallet-Rodrigues (2006) suggested the taxon "loehkeni" should be considered a valid species, the bronze-tailed barbthroat. Three additional species, the tooth-billed hummingbird ("Androdon aequatorialis"), the green-fronted lancebill ("Doryfera ludovicae") and the blue-fronted lancebill ("D. johannae"), have been included in this subfamily in the past, but are now placed in "Trochilinae". Hermit (hummingbird) The hermits are tropical and subtropical hummingbirds in the subfamily Phaethornithinae, comprising 30–40 species in six genera. They occur from southern Mexico, through Central America, to South America as far south as northern Argentina. Their
