Diogenes heteropsammicola is a species of hermit crab that lives within “walking corals” of the genera Heterocyathus and Heteropsammia.[1]
These coral have an internal cavity that is typically occupied by a symbiotic sipunculan worm; in the crab’s habitat in the Ōshima Straight south of Amami Ōshima, it is often found inside the corals instead.[2]
