Geosesarma dennerle is a species of small land-living crabs found on Java, Indonesia. [1] It is popular in the aquarium trade, [1] where G. dennerle, in particular, is often simply called Vampire Crab. Crabs called "Geosesarma bicolor Krakatau Vampirkrabbe" are probably also G. dennerle. [1]
Geosesarma hagen is a species of small land-living crabs only found in Java, Indonesia. The crabs prefer a humid environment with elements from both terrestrial and freshwater aquatic habitats. They steer clear of drier land and although the younger crabs tend to live in closer proximity to the water, they are not aquatic crabs.
Geosesarma is genus of small freshwater or terrestrial crabs, typically less than 10 mm (0.4 in) across the carapace. [2] They live and reproduce on land with the larval stages inside the egg. They are found from India, [3] through Southeast Asia, to the Solomon Islands and Hawaii. [2] In the pet trade, they are sometimes called vampire crabs.

The crabs can travel up to 1.46 km (0.91 mi) in a day, and up to 4 km (2.5 mi) in total. [4] Only a few land crabs, including certain Geosesarma species, have direct development (the mother carries the eggs until they have become tiny, fully developed crabs), and these do not need access to water to breed.
After living for a short time as larvae in the ocean, the juveniles must do this migration in reverse. In many tropical areas with land crabs, these migrations often result in considerable roadkill of migrating crabs. [17]: 113–114 Once crabs have become juveniles, they still have to keep moulting many more times to become adults.
They are known to be cannibalistic, and consume smaller crabs, small reptiles and amphibians, molluscs, fish, and insects if they can catch them. While juvenile and adult crabs spend most of their time on dry land, the females must return to the ocean to release their eggs. The eggs hatch into microscopic larvae, and later on develop into young ...
