A new species of Alvinocaris (Crustacea: Decapoda: Caridea: Alvinocarididae) from Costa Rican methane seeps. [PDF]
A new caridean shrimp, Alvinocaris costaricensis, is described from methane seeps in the eastern Pacific off Costa Rica. The new species is the 16th described species of the genus, and by molecular analysis appears closest to Alvinocaris komaii from the ...

Genetic population structure of four hydrothermal vent shrimp species (Alvinocarididae) in the Okinawa Trough, Northwest Pacific [PDF]
Understanding the formative factors of connectivity among deep-sea chemosynthetic communities may clarify the biogeographic mechanisms that facilitate the establishment and development of vent/seep fauna. This study identified interspecific differences in the geographical distribution and genetic population structure of 4 alvinocaridid shrimp species ...

Seasonality and zonation in the reproductive biology and population structure of the shrimp Alvinocaris stactophila (Caridea: Alvinocarididae) at a Louisiana Slope cold seep [PDF]
Ecological patterns in deep-sea chemosynthetic environments are often considered to be independent of variations in photosynthetic primary production. This study examines spatial and temporal variation in the population structure and reproductive development of the caridean shrimp Alvinocaris stactophila at the Brine Pool cold seep on the Louisiana ...

New records of Alvinocarididae (Crustacea: Decapoda: Caridea) from the southwestern Pacific hydrothermal vents, with descriptions of one new genus and three new species [PDF]
Abstract A taxonomic review of the two genera of the family Alvinocarididae (Decapoda: Caridea), Rimicaris Williams and Rona, 1986 and Chorocaris Martin and Hessler 1990, is presented based on study of type materials and/or supplemental material from recent collections. Two species of Rimicaris, R. exoculata Williams and Rona 1986 and R.

A new species of the alvinocaridid shrimp genus Alvinocaris Williams & Chace, 1982 is described from the Solitaire hydrothermal vent field at 2606 m depth on the Central Indian Ridge. Alvinocaris solitaire sp. nov., the first species of the genus to be recorded from the Indian Ocean, is morphologically most similar to A. lusca Williams & Chace,

A New Species of the Genus Rimicaris (Alvinocarididae: Caridea: Decapoda) from the Active Hydrothermal Vent Field, “Kairei Field,” on the Central Indian Ridge, the Indian Ocean [PDF]
Rimicaris kairei new species (Alvinocarididae: Caridea: Decapoda) is described based on materials, from the active hydrothermal vent field, "Kairei Field," on the Central Indian Ridge, the Indian Ocean. The new species is clearly distinguishable from the unique congener, R. exoculata Williams & Rona, 1986, which is known from the Atlantic Ocean.

Divergence history and hydrothermal vent adaptation of decapod crustaceans: A mitogenomic perspective. [PDF]
Decapod crustaceans, such as alvinocaridid shrimps, bythograeid crabs and galatheid squat lobsters are important fauna in the hydrothermal vents and have well adapted to hydrothermal vent environments.

Three Cases Revealing Remarkable Genetic Similarity Between Vent-Endemic Rimicaris Shrimps Across Distant Geographic Regions [PDF]
Deep-sea hydrothermal vent fauna is often regarded as highly endemic, although exceptions have been reported. We examined genetic connectivity across broad spatial scales within the alvinocaridid genus Rimicaris, which has undergone substantial adaptive ...
