Observations on rock boring by Alpheus saxidomus (Crustacea: Alpheidae)
Marine Biology, 1985This study describes some aspects of the distribution, ecology, and rock boring behaviour of the shrimp Alpheus saxidomus Holthuis from the Pacific coast of Costa Rica. This species has a typical hammer-shaped dactylus on the first right pereiopod of females and males that shows tracks of abrasion at the hammer-head.

Phylogenetic relationships within the snapping shrimp genus Synalpheus (Decapoda: Alpheidae)
Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2014The snapping shrimp genus Synalpheus (Alpheidae) is one of the most speciose decapod genera, with over 160 described species worldwide. Most species live in symbiotic relationships with other marine organisms, such as sponges, corals and crinoids, and some sponge-dwelling species have a highly organized, social structure. The present study is the first

A new species of Alpheus (Crustacea, Decapoda, Alpheidae) from the Arabian Sea, Kerala, India
Zootaxa, 2020A new species of Alpheus, A. samudra nov. sp., is described from the bycatch of trawlers operating between 275–375 m depth on the Quilon Bank (Kerala, India). The new species belongs to the brevirostris group, but can be easily distinguished from all but one species, by the extremely laterally compressed major cheliped. Alpheus samudra nov. sp. is very

Redescription of Alpheus bisincisus De Haan(Decapoda : Alpheidae) from Korea
The snapping shrimp Alpheus bisincisus is redescribed on the basis of nine specimens collected in southern Korea. This species is readily distinguished from the other reported species of the Edwardsii group of Alpheus from Korea (A. heeia, A. hoplocheles, A. japonicus, A. lobidens, A. malabaricus, A. pacificus, A. richardsoni, and A.

Sur L'Appendix Masculina Chez Salmoneus (Decapoda, Alpheidae)
Crustaceana, 1989A revision of all specimens of the six species of Salmoneus extant in the Museum of Natural History of Paris has shown that there is always an appendix masculina on the second pleopod. The presence of such a character, even in ovigerous specimens, suggests the possibility of it being a characteristic of genus Salmoneus. This case is compared to that of

Sound Production in Crustacea with Special Reference to the Alpheidae
2002Sound production is known for many crustacean species of the subclasses Cirripedia (barnacles) and Malacostraca (orders: Stomatopoda, Amphipoda, and Decapoda). Table 1 lists species, mechanisms and references; underwater sound production is shown above the black bar and sound production of semiterrestrial decapods below it.

Evaluation of boat noise impact on the sound detection ability of snapping shrimp (Alpheidae)
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of AmericaSnapping shrimp (Alpheidae) produce loud, broadband snaps during intraspecific and interspecific interactions. These sounds produced from snapping shrimp are known to serve as environmental cues for a range of marine organisms. However, the noise from anthropogenic activities brings serious concerns about its impact on sound production as well as ...
