In this paper, we report for the first time the occurrence of the swimming crab Charybdis hellerii (A. Milne-Edwards, 1867) on the continental shelf of Amapá State. Four specimens were collected as bycatch fauna during industrial fishing operations targeting the southern brown shrimp.

Incidental capture and diversity of Elasmobranchii and Teleostei caught by red snapper and lobster fisheries in the Great Amazon Reef System [PDF]
ABSTRACT The Great Amazon Reef System is one of the least known mesophotic environments on the Atlantic coast of northern South America, threatened by oil and gas exploration projects and explored by different industrial fisheries. Here, we provide the first inventory of the cartilaginous and bony fishes captured by industrial fisheries of the red ...

RANGE EXTENSION OF TWO BRACHYURAN CRABS COLLECTED FROM THE AMAZON CONTINENTAL SHELF
The Amazon Continental Shelf (ACS) is composed of numerous benthic habitats, which shelter a high diversity of invertebrates, especially crustaceans. However, due to the complexity of ecosystems, knowledge of crustacean fauna is still incomplete.
