Improved to Good Article status by Etriusus (talk). Self-nominated at 00:52, 23 April 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Purple shore crab; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.
Hi Etriusus (talk), review follows: article promoted to GA on 22 April and is well written; I am no expert but the sources used look to be reliable and I found no overly close paraphrasing from the ones I accessed; hook facts are interesting, mentioned in the article and check out to sources cited; a QPQ has been carried out. Looks fine to me; note: I added "each year" to ALT0 as that seemed more impressive, feel free to revert if desired - Dumelow (talk) 07:12, 23 April 2023 (UTC)
