NESTLING ORGANISMS 1 . Crustacean Nestlers Many of the decapod crustaceans identified here utilized the empty borings for protection in some parts of their life cycle. The daytime dives often recovered rocks with the crabs Pachycheles rudis and P_. pubescens wedged tightly into small holes with their large claw acting as a plug (Haig and Abbott, 1980). These species were quite abundant
