Shells in Ayurveda, addendum re crabs

[Allen W Thrasher]

In my posting "Shells, starfishes, and sea urchins in Ayurveda" I
meant to include that my patron is also interested in the economic
uses in Ayurveda or otherwise of the shells of crabs and other
crustacea.

Thanks for any help.  I will be looking at Watt's old publications on
economic products of India and books on Aryurvedic materia medica.
