Dromilites lamarckii (Desmarest) (spelling ii) |
| Basinotopus lamarcki (PDF) is probably the most attractive and sought after crab from the London Clay. The specimens featured here are stunning examples and represent the best that are likely to be found. Most examples are found either in situ or scattered on the foreshore exposures. They are not come by in such good condition on the beach. | ||||||
