There are a number of crabs that are asymmetrical. Hermit crabs for one. Sponges are all asymmetrical.

The question of symmetry in mammals, requires you to define at what level you are looking at. The internal organs of higher organisms rarely show symmetry - eg the liver is more on one side of the central axis than the other, as is the heart. The alimentary canal also doesn't run straight down the middle either.

I believe that crab is called the Fiddler Crab.

The only other thing I can think of is a Walking Stick (a bug that looks like a stick).

Snails. Most show helical coiling and therefore have no symmetry
