BIODIVERSITY OF MARINE DECAPOD BRACHYURANS OF THE AMERICAS [PDF]

Journal of Crustacean Biology, 2000
The number of species of Decapoda Brachyura in the marine waters of the Americas is estimated to be 1,086. The regions under study extend from the Arctic (north) to Cabo de Homos (south) and include the eastern and western coasts of the continents. Continental shelf species to depths of 200 m (and 300m in some cases) within fourteen zoogeographical ...

A new ‘Southern Giant Crab’ from a miocene continental slope palaeoenvironment at Taranaki, North Island, New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 68, Issue 4, Page 628-639, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Large‐sized extinct crab specimens recovered from Waitoetoe beach, North Island, New Zealand form the basis for a new species of ‘Southern Giant Crab’, Pseudocarcinus karlraubenheimeri n. sp. The specimens originate from the upper Miocene Urenui Formation (approximately 8.8 myr) of the Taranaki Basin, in which a series of volcanoes of the ...

Planktonic larval stages—an adaptation to lower predation rates in the pelagic environment?

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 70, Issue 11, Page 3417-3430, November 2025.
Abstract A majority of marine benthic macroinvertebrate and fish species have planktonic larval stages that disperse in the water column from days to months. However, the adaptive significance of pelagic larvae, and whether predation is higher in the pelagic or the benthic environment, is still debated, partly due to a lack of studies assessing larval ...

Ocean acidification affects marine chemical communication by changing structure and function of peptide signalling molecules [PDF]

, 2016
Ocean acidification is a global challenge that faces marine organisms in the near future with a predicted rapid drop in pH of up to 0.4 units by the end of this century.

Historical Biogeography of Spiny Lobsters in the Genus Panulirus (Achelata: Palinuridae)

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Panulirus is the spiny lobster genus with the most living species, containing 22 recognised species split into two lineages distinguished by habitat preference. Diversification has been proposed to occur due to geographic events affecting the distribution of adults and the dispersal potential of long‐lived larvae by oceanic currents ...
