Description Portunus sanguinolentus commonly known as
'three spot swimming crab', or 'Mupottan njandu' in
the vernacular in Kerala forms a major portion of
commercially important marine crabs landed along
Vizhinjam coast. On 13th November 2017, crab
samples were obtained from bottom set gill nets
operated in 10 m depth, 5 km away from the sea
shore off Vizhinjam. While analyzing gut contents
of crabs, 3 specimens of P.sanguinolentus were
found with multifilament synthetic gill net parts
in their entire fore gut.
