As of my last knowledge update in January 2022, there isn't a universally recognized species commonly referred to as "Mini Mexican Crayfish." However, there are popular species within the Cambarellus genus, known as dwarf crayfish or mini crayfish, and these are sometimes referred to colloquially as "Mini Mexican Crayfish."

One of the common species in this category is the Mexican Dwarf Orange Crayfish (Cambarellus patzcuarensis). Here is some general information about this species:

  • Size: Adults typically range from 1.5 to 2 inches (3.8 to 5 cm).
