FAMILY
海蟑螂科(学名:Ligiidae )是一種常見的岸棲甲殼類,鮮少在海中活動,但遭遇危險會逃入海中,以生物屍體及有機碎屑為食,為食腐動物。有七對步足,及一雙複眼,因貌似蟑螂而得名。特徵與習性:體長1.5-2.5cm左右。除了頭外,身體有十三節,其中胸部七節,腹部六節。有七對腳分佈在胸部的七節。尾部腹面是呼吸器官,有12塊薄膜。頭上有一對大眼,一對觸鬚和嘴。在水中或陸地都靠保持濕濕的尾部腹面薄膜呼吸。海蟑螂有抱卵的習性。 每年11月為抱卵孵化最多時期。早上或傍晚,就從棲身處向有食物的地方列隊前進。海蟑螂是生活在高潮帶的生物。冬天常躲在岩石縫裡。由於海蟑螂的主食為海藻類,所以沿海居民並不將其與骯髒做連結,也常用海蟑螂作為釣餌使用。
