Key For The Identification Of Mediterranean Brachyuran Megalopae

Mediterranean Marine Science, 2004
Based on larval literature, an identification key has been constructed for the megalopae of 55 species of Mediterranean Brachyura. This key is based mainly on external morphological characteristics visible, by using a microscope, limiting the necessity for dissection of specimens.

Climate Change and invasibility of the Antarctic benthos [PDF]

, 2007
Benthic communities living in shallow-shelf habitats in Antarctica (<100-m depth) are archaic in their structure and function. Modern predators, including fast-moving, durophagous (skeleton-crushing) bony fish, sharks, and crabs, are rare or absent ...

Restructuring of the "Macaronesia" biogeografic unit: a marine multi-taxon biogeographical approach [PDF]

, 2019
The Azores, Madeira, Selvagens, Canary Islands and Cabo Verde are commonly united under the term “Macaronesia”. This study investigates the coherency and validity of Macaronesia as a biogeographic unit using six marine groups with very different ...

A DNA barcode library for mangrove gastropods and crabs of Hong Kong and the Greater Bay Area reveals an unexpected faunal diversity associated with the intertidal forests of Southern China

BMC Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Background Mangroves are tropical and subtropical intertidal forests colonising sheltered coasts across the world. They host a unique faunal community, dominated by brachyuran crabs and gastropods.

Feeding habits of the cockfish, Callorhinchus callorynchus (Holocephali: Callorhinchidae) from off northern Argentina [PDF]

Neotropical Ichthyology, 2020
The feeding habits of Callorhinchus callorynchus were investigated in coastal waters off northern Argentina. The effect of body size, seasons and regions was evaluated on female diet composition using a multiple-hypothesis modelling approach ...

Temperature effects on zoeal morphometric traits and intraspecific variability in the hairy crab Cancer setosus across latitude [PDF]

, 2009
International audiencePhenotypic plasticity is an important but often ignored ability that enables organisms, within species-specific physiological limits, to respond to gradual or sudden extrinsic changes in their environment.

Sclerite formation in the hydrothermal-vent “scaly-foot” gastropod — possible control of iron sulfide biomineralization by the animal [PDF]

, 2006
A gastropod from a deep-sea hydrothermal field at the Rodriguez triple junction, Indian Ocean, has scale-shaped structures, called sclerites, mineralized with iron sulfides on its foot.

Journal of biological studies, 2020
In the present study, three commercially important species of brachyuran crabs viz., Portunus (Portunus) segnis (Forskal, 1775), Charybdis (Charybdis) feriatus (Linnaeus, 1758) and Portunus (Portunus) sanguinolentus (Herbst, 1783) were analysed to know ...
