A fatal mistake?
This species contains dangerous toxins that often kill those who eat it. This is because it much resembles the three other edible species of 'Tachypleus' genus. It could be distinguished by a round tail (in contrast to triangular tails of 'Tachypleus'), and much smaller weight (in contrast to 1.5-2 kg for 'Tachypleus').
