Molecular Evaluation of the Mating Dynamics of Snow Crab (Chionoecetes opilio) in the Eastern Bering Sea

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2024.
Most snow crab females in the eastern Bering Sea had stored sperm from one or two mates. While single paternity was common, some females had clutches sired by two males. Female snow crab primarily mated with male snow crab, with few instances of interspecies mating.

Just a matter of size? Evaluating allometry and intersexual heterometry in Pagurus bernhardus using ratios and indices (Decapoda, Anomura)

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, Volume 19, Issue 5, Page 807-823, September 2024.
We analyzed 190 specimens of the common European hermit crab species Pagurus bernhardus to look for the heterometry between the sexes regardless of the body size. We calculated three different indices and found all to be significantly different between males and females, indicating that males have bigger major and minor chelipeds than females, even if ...

Table 2: Morphometric data of structures within the peripheral olfactory pathway and of the primary olfactory centers in the brain of decapod crustaceans. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Adaptations to a terrestrial lifestyle occurred convergently multiple times during the evolution of the arthropods. This holds also true for the “true crabs” (Brachyura), a taxon that includes several lineages that invaded land independently.

A two‐year physicochemical and acoustic observation reveals spatiotemporal effects of earthquake‐induced shallow‐water hydrothermal venting on the surrounding environments

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 9, Issue 4, Page 423-432, August 2024.
Abstract Shallow‐water hydrothermal vents have gained growing attention for their intricate characteristics caused by various epipelagic factors. The shallow‐water hydrothermal system offshore Kueishan Island, Taiwan, situated in an earthquake‐prone area, has prompted our exploration into the relationship between hydrothermal and seismic activities ...
