Predation scars provide a new method to distinguish native and invasive crab predation on mollusc prey We present a new cost-effective method for identifying species-specific crab predation on mollusc prey. By applying geometric morphometrics to analyse the shape of the damage they leave on their shel...

Here, we look at differences in the shape of predation scars/claw marks generated by 3 crab species, including #Dungeness, red rock, and #EuropeanGreenCrabs.
