Ecology
Deplectors were land crabs that lived in the cracks and crevices of Skull Island. While they lacked eyes, the Deplectors used their antennae to locate prey, mainly Vultursaurus that flew in giant flocks at night, and often would eat about a dozen at a time.

Females laid hundreds of eggs at a time, and they all left into the chasm after hatching. Male Deplectors are noticeably dwarfed by females, and never leave their larval stage. Instead, they inhabit a female's cave and fertilize their eggs.
