    What a big haul for your first Molt Search, Susan! Thanks so much for contributing to the dataset and keeping an eye out for green crab and young Dungeness on Whidbey. We try to add a second set of eyes to every report, but we’ll just have to take your word for it on this shore crab bonanza! Hope you had a nice time out there.

    236 Hemigrapsus Oregonensis
    35 Hemigrapsus species that were too small to confidently id to species level. I suspect all we HEOR due to location
