Ecological transitions and the shape of the decapod tree of life [PDF]
Understanding the processes that shaped the distribution of species richness across the Tree of Life is a central macroevolutionary research agenda. Major ecological innovations, including transitions between habitats, may help to explain the striking ...

Cleaner shrimps feature a broad communicative repertoire which is considered to depend on superb motor skills and the underlying mechanosensory circuits in combination with sensory organs such as the two pairs of antennules and antennae, which are used both for attracting client fish and for intraspecific communication.

Interspecies Differences in Food Sources for the Tropical Callichirid Shrimp \u3ci\u3eNeocallichirus\u3c/i\u3e spp. on San Salvador Island, Bahamas [PDF]
At least 4 species of callichirid shrimp coexist in the shallow marine settings of San Salvador Island, an isolated, small platform of the all-carbonates Bahama Archipelago, implying that interspecific competition or trophic niche segregation occurs ...

The largest ghost shrimps ever: evidence from the fossil record and implications for the maximum size estimate of callianassoid burrowing ghost shrimps [PDF]
Callianassoid burrowing ghost shrimps are mostly small animals, with a total length (from the tip of the rostrum to the end of the tailfan) typically not exceeding a few centimetres.

The Thalassinidean Mud Shrimp Upogebia vasquezi: Life Cycle and Reproductive Traits on the Amazonian Coast, Brazil [PDF]
The thalassinideans comprise the infraorders Axiidea and Gebiidea, two distinct groups of decapods that have converged morphologically and ecologically as burrowing forms, commonly known as mud lobsters and mud or ghost shrimps.
