In crustaceans, as in other animals, perception of environmental cues is of key importance for a wide range of interactions with the environment and congeners.

Background Transposable elements are major constituents of eukaryote genomes and have a great impact on genome structure and stability. Considering their mutational abilities, TEs can contribute to the genetic diversity and evolution of organisms ...

ENIGMA OF THE TROPHIC ADAPTATION OF THE SHRIMP ALVINOCARIDIDAE IN HYDROTHERMAL AREAS ALONG THE MID-ATLANTIC RIDGE [PDF]
This study deals with comparison of morphology and in situ behaviour of three Alvinocarididae species from the Snake Pit hydrothermal area (mid-Atlantic ridge), explored during the Hydrosnake cruise (1988). Spatial distribution on the site is described and illustrated for the three species. Rimicaris exoculara highly predominates.

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 Lau Basin, southwestern Pacific, but shares certain morphological characters with A.

The investigations of the molecular components of eye development and phototransduction in deep-sea species are important to elucidate the mechanism of their adaptation to dim light.

Abstract Methane seepage, generated from natural processes or gas hydrate dissociation, drives the development of cold seep ecosystems and leads to atmosphere methane emission, thereby influencing climate change. Uncovering the intrinsic interactions among methane seepage intensities, biogeochemical processes in the sediment, and benthic community ...

Reproductive biology of Alvinocaris muricola (Decapoda: Caridea: Alvinocarididae) from cold seeps in the Congo Basin [PDF]
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.

Day-night activity rhythm of the cold seep shrimp Alvinocaris stactophila (Caridea: Alvinocarididae) from the Gulf of Mexico [PDF]
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 ...

A revision of the genusAlvinocarisWilliams and Chace (Crustacea: Decapoda: Caridea: Alvinocarididae), with descriptions of a new genus and a new species ofAlvinocaris [PDF]
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.
