Global distribution and biodiversity of brachyuran crabs in the Persian Gulf
Abstract The tropical Indo-West Pacific (IWP) is one of the species-rich and high endemicity hotspots around the East Indies Triangle. However, recent research demonstrates that peripheral regions may act as evolutionary incubators, sharing unique genetic lineages with other regions of the IWP.

Insight Into the Nuclear and Mitochondrial Genome of the Caribbean King Crab <i>Maguimithrax spinosissimus</i> (Crustacea: Brachyura: Mithracidae) to Support Fisheries Management and Conservation Initiatives. [PDF]
Ecol EvolGenomic resources for the Caribbean King Crab. ABSTRACT The Caribbean King crab Maguimithrax spinosissimus is the largest brachyuran in the western Atlantic and target of subsistence, recreational, and/or artisanal fisheries. Also, its abbreviated larval period makes it a candidate for mariculture to support coral reef restoration efforts.

Similar Metabolic Costs for Mangrove Tree Crabs (<i>Aratus pisonii</i>) in Historic and Range-Shifted Habitats. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe show that metabolic costs of mangrove tree crabs are similar in native mangrove habitats and in salt marshes that have recently been colonized with climate change. Our results suggest that changes to life history of this species that accompany this range expansion are the result of energetic constraints in salt marshes.

Six new records of decapod crustacean species (Anomura, Brachyura) from southern Brazil
Nauplius, 2023 Five anomuran and one brachyuran species collected from continental shelf and slope off southern Brazil have their geographic ranges considerably extended southward: Neolithodes agassizii (Smith), Paguristes spectabilis McLaughlin and Provenzano, Pagurus

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021 Sexual dimorphism is generally obvious in brachyurans, and sexual dimorphism between species is of a higher degree to allow separation of trophic niches compared to the lower intraspecific variations between sexes.

Systematic assessment of the Panopeidae and broader Eubrachyura (Decapoda: Brachyura) using mitochondrial genomics [PDF]
Arthropod Systematics & Phylogeny, 2021 This study provides a broad phylogenetic analysis for the Eubrachyura, with the inclusion of three new Panopeidae mitochondrial genomes: Eurypanopeus depressus (flatback mud crab) (15,854bp), Panopeus herbstii (Atlantic mud crab) (15,812bp) and ...
