FIL: Isang uri ng alimango o talangka na mas maliit kaysa sa karaniwang alimasag.
EN: a type of small crab
It's a crab, but not the big, meaty alimango you're dreaming of for your ginataang version. A 'talipa' is a smaller type of crab. Think of it as the younger sibling in the crab family. You'd probably find this at a local wet market, but it's not as famous as its bigger cousins.
Specific to a type of crustacean, smaller than an 'alimango' or 'alimasag'.
