Crustacean chromatophores are specialized pigment-containing cells found in the skin of crustaceans, such as crabs and lobsters. These cells enable color changes and patterns in response to environmental factors, emotions, or camouflage needs. Chromatophores contain different pigments and can expand or contract to alter the coloration of the crustacean's exoskeleton. This ability aids in communication, thermoregulation, and predator avoidance.
