Lividuscutus (meaning "blue-black-shield") is a 9-12 inches long (22.8-30.4 centimeters) lobsters.
Facts[]
Unlike the majority of lobster species, Lividuscutus was a dark-blue-shelled herbivorous lobster with delicate claws but long, powerful legs for clinging to the wave-pounded rocks.
The species could exert remarkable grip for its size, hauling itself along the dangerous splash zone where it harvested algae from the rocks. They often fell prey to larger coastal predators despite its armoured bulk.
Trivia[]
- Unlike the majority of animals from Skull Island, it is highly likely that Lividuscutus survived the island's sinking as they were excellent swimmers and could live in the salty oceans.
