Jurassic brachyurans of the genus Bucculentum

Zootaxa, 2021
The genus Bucculentum Schweitzer & Feldmann, 2009 is exceptional among the brachyuran decapods in having the augenrest dorsally inclined. Hitherto, the genus comprised two species, both from European Upper Jurassic localities; here, further two species are described, Bucculentum horstkuscheli, n. sp. and B. plettenbergense, n.

Effect of biological and anthropogenic sound on the orientation behavior of four species of brachyuran crabs

Marine Ecology Progress Series, 2021
The settlement phase of crustaceans is critical and can ultimately affect their population structure. Underwater sound has been proposed as one of the most important sensory cues used by these animals during this phase because it can provide direction ...

Multiple Environmental Factors Increase the Niche Complexity and Species Diversity of Brachyuran Crabs in an Intertidal Algal Reef Ecosystem in Northwestern Taiwan.

Zoological Studies, 2021
Algal reefs are one of the world's rare and poorly understood ecosystems. They are mainly distributed in the Mediterranean Sea, but one notable exception-an intertidal algal reef ecosystem in northwestern Taiwan-stretches for 27 km along the coast of ...

Distribution of brachyuran larvae in an Amazonian estuary as evidence for retention and export

Journal of Crustacean Biology, 2019
Brachyuran crabs, like other decapod crustaceans, adopt a number of different strategies for larval dispersal. We verified the influence of variations in temperature, salinity, and pH on the abundance and taxonomic composition of brachyuran larvae in ...

Antimicrobial Lipids from the Hemolymph of Brachyuran Crabs

Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 2009
The potential of marine crabs as a source of biologically active products is largely unexplored. In the present study, antimicrobial activity of the hemolymph (plasma) and hemocytes (plasma cells) of six brachyuran crabs was investigated against 16 pathogenic strains.

Carrying Behavior in Brachyuran Crabs

Journal of Crustacean Biology, 1986
ABSTRACT Carrying is a behavior in which the last one or two pairs of pereiopods of a crab are used to lift and hold an object dorsally over the body. This behavior is found in the families Homolidae, Latreilliidae, Dromiidae, Tymolidae, and Dorippidae.

Accuracy and standardization of brachyuran larval descriptions

Invertebrate Reproduction & Development, 1998
Summary There is a need for improvement and standardization in larval descriptions for them to become useful not only for identification purposes but also in comparative and phylogenetic studies. Details of the rearing technique and equipment used should be given, the spent female crab and representative larval stages need to be deposited at a national
