Chaceon fenneri commonly known as the golden crab or golden deepsea crab is one of several species of crab harvested for food by humans. It was formerly called Geryon fenneri. Like the blue crab its common name comes from the color of its shell; it is usually cream to tan in color. Both parts of the binomen Chaceon fenneri commemorate Fenner A. Chace Jr. It is generally found on the ocean beds in the tropical regions of the Atlantic Ocean and cannot swim.
