Comparative Ultrastructure and Carbohydrate Composition of Gastroliths from Astacidae, Cambaridae and Parastacidae Freshwater Crayfish (Crustacea, Decapoda) [PDF]

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2012
Crustaceans have to cyclically replace their rigid exoskeleton in order to grow. Most of them harden this skeleton by a calcification process. Some decapods (land crabs, lobsters and crayfish) elaborate calcium storage structures as a reservoir of ...

Niche dynamics along two centuries of multiple crayfish invasions

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 92, Issue 11, Page 2138-2150, November 2023., 2023
A historical ecology approach unveiled how the realised niche of a European crayfish species changed since 1850. In response to the introduction of two North American crayfish species, along with a lethal pathogen, its niche shrank and shifted towards more abrupt, headwater environments where the overseas invaders have not arrived.
