English term or phrase: queen crab
I need to know the name of this type of crab in Spanish, as opposed to red tanner crab.

Thank you!

cangrejo gigante de tasmania


Explanation:
He encontrado dos especies distintas llamadas Queen Crab, este es el nombre en castellano de una de ellas.

Lo otro que he encontrado no es una especie, sino un genero o grupo (no se exactamente) de cangrejos llamados al parecer a veces "spider crab", y repartidos por diversos climas y partes del mundo. Así que supongo que debe ser esto que te he contestado.

la referencia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queen_crab

lleva a una especie en concreto llamada Pseudocarcinus gigas, cuyo nombre vulgar en castellano resulta ser Cangrejo gigante de Tasmania.

Hola, Carlos,
Acabo de ver la referencia que Inés puso en tu misma pregunta anterior y creo que ese es el nombre correcto. Ignoro si recibas más respuestas, sin embargo yo usaría lo que ya has recibido.

Saludos
