The Packhorse Crayfish is the larger of the two saltwater crayfish species found around New Zealand waters. It is distinguished by its greenish, glossy shell which is noticeably bigger than the classic red crayfish. Compared to the spiny red crayfish, the Packhorse Crayfish has a smoother body with fewer bumps. Its tail is particularly striking, featuring a smooth texture and a range of green hues—from rich pine to jade—that set it apart from its red counterpart.
Available as Fine Art Print or Stretch Canvas Print in A5, A4, A3, A2 sizes.
