There are Mithrax crabs that are hairy like gorilla crabs. If you look at the claws gorilla crabs will be smooth with points, mithrax crabs will have flat spoon shaped tips. Petter pictures would help, the one you posted could be either.

It has gone to lfs. It had black pointy claws which seems to be bad. I hv taken this photo from Google.
