common
not a paddle crab (not sure of the name though)they are fairly common under rocks along the downstream parts of the river along with the other more common type of rock crab both make good bait for big bream.

No spines between the eyes
No spines between the eyes so definitely not an Asian paddle crab,
it could be a small four lobed swimming crab
