Atlantic ghost crab
Like other ghost crabs, the Atlantic ghost crab earned its descriptive name by being nocturnal. Of course, the Atlantic ghost crab is also generally a ghostly pale. As it matures, its shell can change colour to closer match the sand on the beach where it digs burrows to hide out and rest until sunset beckons it to the surface to hunt insects, clams, and, if the opportunity arises, other crabs.
