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.

Impacts of urbanization on mangrove forests and brachyuran crabs in Penang, Malaysia
Regional Environmental Change, 2021 Urban development is driving the loss and subsequent fragmentation of mangrove forests in Penang, Malaysia. However, little research has focused on the implications of urbanization onto the biodiversity within mangrove forests.

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.
