Insight Into the Nuclear and Mitochondrial Genome of the Caribbean King Crab <i>Maguimithrax spinosissimus</i> (Crustacea: Brachyura: Mithracidae) to Support Fisheries Management and Conservation Initiatives. [PDF]
Genomic resources for the Caribbean King Crab. ABSTRACT The Caribbean King crab Maguimithrax spinosissimus is the largest brachyuran in the western Atlantic and target of subsistence, recreational, and/or artisanal fisheries. Also, its abbreviated larval period makes it a candidate for mariculture to support coral reef restoration efforts.
