Preserved Northern Crayfish (Faxonius virilis) Specimen – Pack of 12

from $18.00
Quantity:

This real preserved Northern Crayfish (Faxonius virilis) provide students with a hands-on specimens for studying crustacean anatomy, arthropod biology, and comparative zoology. Professionally preserved in formalin and vacuum sealed for long-term educational use, each specimen allows detailed examination of the exoskeleton, cephalothorax, abdomen, walking legs, swimmerets, gills, compound eyes, antennae, and chelae (claws).

Ideal for biology classrooms, anatomy laboratories, homeschool science, universities, museums, and educational collections, this specimen supports lessons on arthropod anatomy, freshwater ecology, taxonomy, and comparative zoology.

Because these are natural specimens, size varies, with most measuring roughly 3–6 inches. Each specimen is professionally prepared, individually vacuum sealed, and ready for classroom or laboratory use.

  • Northern Crayfish (Faxonius virilis) are freshwater crustaceans commonly found in lakes, rivers, streams, and ponds throughout North America. They are widely used in biology education because their external and internal anatomy clearly demonstrates many of the defining characteristics of arthropods and crustaceans, making them excellent specimens for comparative anatomy and laboratory study.
