Phylogenomic analyses of brachyuran crabs support early divergence of primary freshwater crabs

Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2019
Recent fossil calibrated molecular phylogenies have revealed that the Brachyura underwent rapid radiation during the Cretaceous and Early Tertiary, resulting in many early diverging lineages separated by short internodes that remain difficult to resolve.

Behavioral adaptations in larvae of brachyuran crabs: A review

Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 2016
Abstract Larval development in brachyuran crabs includes a number of zoeal stages followed by a single megalopal stage. Zoeae and megalopae are relatively strong swimmers, and movement up or down in the water column takes advantage of vertical shear in ambient currents with consequent transport in the horizontal dimension.

Commercially important mangrove crabs are more susceptible to microplastic contamination than other brachyuran species

Science of the Total Environment, 2023
Brachyuran crabs are ecologically and economically important macrofauna in mangrove habitats. However, they are exposed to various contaminants, including plastics, which bioaccumulate in relation to their feeding modes.

Biodiversity and ecological considerations of brachyuran crabs (Crustacea: Decapoda) from Devi estuary–mangrove region on the east coast of India

Regional Studies in Marine Science, 2019
Despite high proportion of shell fisheries for livelihood and food security, documentation of brachyuran crabs from Devi estuary, east coast of India, recognized as ‘arribada’ of Olive Ridley turtles, remains sparse.
