Decapod crustacean from the Qom Formation (Lower Miocene) of the Isfahan area, Central Iran [PDF]

Journal of Stratigraphy and Sedimentology Researches
The discovery of a new specimen of Portunus withersi (Glaessner 1933) from the Lower Miocene Qom Formation in the Vartun section, north of Isfahan (Central Iran), contributes to our knowledge of this portunid species, to which most fossil portunids found

Phylogeography of Potamon ibericum (Brachyura: Potamidae) identifies Quaternary glacial refugia within the Caucasus biodiversity hot spot

Ecology and Evolution, 2019
Refugia are critical for the maintenance of biodiversity during the periods of Quaternary climatic oscillations. The long‐term persistence of refugial populations in a large continuous refugium has resulted in a homogenous pattern of genetic structure ...

An investigation into the diet of elephant fish (Callorhinchus milii) in the waters of Aotearoa/New Zealand

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Chondrichthyans (sharks, rays and chimaeras) are increasingly understood to be an important part of ocean ecosystems, but their ecological role is unclear. Callorhinchus milii (elephant fish) is a chimaera species endemic to Aotearoa/New Zealand and southern Australian waters.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Parasesarma pictum (Brachyura: Grapsoidea: Sesarmidae) and comparison with other Brachyuran crabs.

Genomics, 2019
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is an extrachromosomal genome which can provide important information for evolution and phylogenetic analysis. In this study, we assembled a complete mitogenome of a crab Parasesarma pictum (Brachyura: Grapsoidea: Sesarmidae ...

Intraspecific Variation in Reproductive Aspects of Female Soldier Crabs, Mictyris guinotae, Between the River Mouth and Upper Reach Habitats

Marine Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The soldier crab, Mictyris guinotae, is a dominant intertidal crustacean associated with sand flats in the vicinity of the Urauchi River estuary on Iriomote Island, Japan. We compared various aspects of its reproductive biology at two sites (the river mouth and upper reach) on exposed bare sand flats 300 m and 3000 m upstream from the mouth ...

Oxygen consumption of the freshwater crab Elamenopsis kempi (Chopra and Das, 1930) from the Garmat-Ali river, Iraq

Scientia Marina, 2000
The rate of oxygen consumption of the subtidal hymenosomatid crab Elamenopsis kempi, was studied from February 1988-December of the same year. The experiments were conducted by a Gilson respirometer over a wide temperature range (15-35°C), with the aim ...

Cytogenetic of Brachyura (Decapoda): testing technical aspects for obtaining metaphase chromosomes in six mangrove crab species

Caryologia, 2020
Brachyura is one of the most specious infra-order belonging to Decapoda and it plays a central role from an ecological and economic point of view. Despite its importance, cytogenetic studies on Brachyura (Decapoda) are extremely limited due to the ...

New hypotheses concerning the earliest brachyurans (Crustacea, Decapoda, Brachyura)

Geodiversitas, 2019
All Jurassic brachyuran taxa known to date are based solely upon dorsal carapaces, and only a limited number of Early and mid-Cretaceous crabs retain ventral parts.
