There's a CP on page 26 in Origami Omnibus by Kunihiko Kasahara.
It consists of four birdbases attached to each other with one of their four flaps.

I believe that crab is the one diagramed in Yoshizawa's Sosaku Origami. It's a double blitzed frog base crease pattern.

I think it's the one with cuts. I recall it being the crease pattern of a blintz-frog base (AKA 4 bird bases) With a cut on the middle of each side going halfway to the center.
Though Seiji Nishikawa and Akira Yoshizawa have similar designs from an uncut square.
