Naming
The family name onionshell comes from their distinctively shaped bodies. Much like the Onions, members bare shells similar to that of an onion, with a round bottom half that loops to an enclosed stub on the top.
The family genus brachyurices is a reference to the real world group Brachyura, which contains crabs.
