Early egg traits in Cancer setosus (Decapoda, Brachyura): effects of temperature and female size

open access: yes, 2009
Previous study on Cancer setosus (Molina, 1782) had shown that latitudinal changes in temperature control the number of annual egg masses. This study focused on the effects of pre-oviposition temperature and female size on egg-traits in C.

Report of brachyuran crabs (Crustacea, Decapoda) from the Pliocene of Borgomanero, Novara (Piedmont, NW Italy)

open access: yesNatural History Sciences, 2018
Some brachyuran crabs from the Pliocene of a new outcrop nearby Borgomanero (Novara, Piedmont, NW Italy) are reported. This study allows us to recognize a peculiar brachyuran crabs assemblage including: Macropipus cf. M.

THE NEUROSECRETORY SYSTEM OF BRACHYURAN CRUSTACEA ,

open access: yesThe Biological Bulletin, 1952
1. The land crab, Gecarcinus lateralis (Freminville), was selected as the principal subject for this study of anatomical relationships existing between neurosecretory centers in the eyestalks and brain of brachyuran Crustacea. Observations were also made on ten other species of crabs.2.

Is Eocarcinus Withers, 1932, a Basal Brachyuran? [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Crustacean Biology, 2010
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 ...

Marine trophic architecture and hidden ecological connections in the Strait of Magellan: keystone species and ecosystem resilience

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Understanding the ecological implications of species coexistence is central to biodiversity studies and to identify environmental and anthropogenic drivers of ecosystem dynamics, where ecological network analysis offers valuable insights. This study examines the complexity, structure, and potential responses to disturbances of the Strait of Magellan's ...

A review of autonomous reef monitoring structures (ARMS) for monitoring hard‐bottom benthic biodiversity

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Amid increasing anthropogenic pressures on ecosystems, standardised biodiversity monitoring is critical for assessing biodiversity change. Marine hard‐bottom habitats, though ubiquitous and biodiverse, present challenges for biodiversity monitoring due to their complex structure and limited accessibility. Autonomous reef monitoring structures (

Revealing the Diverse Allergenic Protein Repertoire of Six Widely Consumed Crab Species: A Species‐Specific Allergen in King Crab

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
This study comprehended the allergen profiles of six edible crab species using proteomic and transcriptomic analyses and identified 11 putative allergens. King crab has a distinct protein and allergen profile, with the discovery of malate dehydrogenase as a novel king crab‐specific allergen registered as Para c 11.
