Reproductive biology of Alvinocaris muricola (Decapoda: Caridea: Alvinocarididae) from cold seeps in the Congo Basin [PDF]
Journal of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom, 2006 The caridean shrimp Alvinocaris muricola has been observed forming high density populations over mussel beds on the giant pockmark cold seep site Regab in the Gulf of Guinea at 3150 m depth. Samples were collected using the ROV Victor 6000, a beam trawl and a TV grab from two sites.

Comparative transcriptome analysis of Rimicaris sp. reveals novel molecular features associated with survival in deep-sea hydrothermal vent [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2017 Shrimp of the family Alvinocarididae are the predominant megafauna of deep-sea hydrothermal vents. However, genome information on this family is currently unavailable. In the present study, by employing Illumina sequencing, we performed the first de novo

A revision of the genus Alvinocaris Williams and Chace (Crustacea: Decapoda: Caridea: Alvinocarididae), with descriptions of a new genus and a new species of Alvinocaris [PDF]
Journal of Natural History, 2005 The caridean shrimp genus Alvinocaris Williams and Chace, 1982 (Bresilioidea: Alvinocarididae) is revised based upon type material and newly obtained samples from various reducing environments of the deep‐sea floor of the world. All species are known from chemosynthetic communities associated with hydrothermal vents, brine or cold seeps.

Day-night activity rhythm of the cold seep shrimp Alvinocaris stactophila (Caridea: Alvinocarididae) from the Gulf of Mexico [PDF]
Journal of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom, 2007 The activity rhythm of the cold seep shrimp Alvinocaris stactophila from the Gulf of Mexico slope (650 m depth) was investigated in the laboratory in relation to an artificial 12 h light-dark regime. Animals were sampled with a submersible and transferred into individual aquaria where their activity was monitored for 5 d by taking digital video ...

Zootaxa, 2005 Two species of the alvinocaridid shrimp genus Alvinocaris, A. methanophila n. sp. and A. muricola Williams, are reported from a cold seep site on the Blake Ridge Diapir, northwestern Atlantic, at a depth of 2155 m. Alvinocaris methanophila is described and illustrated on the basis of 33 adult specimens.
