Relationship of Homolidae and Dromiidae : evidence from spermatozoal ultrastructure (Crustacea, Decapoda) [PDF]
The homolid spermatozoon, as exemplified by #Homola$ sp., #Paromola$ sp. and #Paromola petterdi$, differs markedly from spermatozoa of crabs of the #Heterotremata$ - #Thoracotremata$ assemblage but agrees with the sperm of dromiids, in the strongly ...

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

Is Eocarcinus Withers, 1932, a Basal Brachyuran? [PDF]
Abstract Eocarcinus praecursor, the putative earliest member of Infraorder Brachyura of Early Jurassic age in Great Britain, cannot be accommodated within that infraorder. Numerous characters are inconsistent with placement within Brachyura, including: a lack of fusion of the epistome with the dorsal carapace; chelipeds on the first and putatively ...

Decapod crustaceans from the late Pliocene (Piacenzian) nearby Faenza (Emilia-Romagna, N Italy)
Several specimens of anomuran and brachyuran decapods are reported from the late Pliocene clays (Argille Azzurre Fm.) at localities nearby Faenza (Ravenna, Emilia-Romagna), located in the foothills of Romagna Apennines (NE Italy).

Phylogenetic relationships of Grapsoidea and insights into the higher phylogeny of Brachyuran
Decapoda is one of the most diverse crustacean orders, and has become an important research subject. However, the phylogenetic relationships among the main lineages of Decapoda remain uncertain, especially in the order Brachyura. Herein, we sequenced the whole mitochondrial genome of V.
