Globally, at the rate of 1-2 percent per annum, mangrove coverings are disappearing and 35 percent have been lost in the last 20 years due to changes in climate and human activities.

Brachyuran Crabs (Decapoda) Associated with Rhodolith Beds: Spatio-Temporal Variability at Gran Canaria Island [PDF]
Crustaceans are a key component of the fauna living in rhodoliths, but patterns in their distribution and abundance remain largely unknown. This paper assessed spatio-temporal variability of Brachyura associated with rhodoliths.

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.

Crabs are a member of the mangrove ecosystem fauna and get their food source from litter. They turn the litter into detritus and maintain ecological balance.

Similar Metabolic Costs for Mangrove Tree Crabs (<i>Aratus pisonii</i>) in Historic and Range-Shifted Habitats. [PDF]
We show that metabolic costs of mangrove tree crabs are similar in native mangrove habitats and in salt marshes that have recently been colonized with climate change. Our results suggest that changes to life history of this species that accompany this range expansion are the result of energetic constraints in salt marshes.

Cues for Metamorphosis of Brachyuran Crabs: An Overview [PDF]
The early life cycle of brachyuran crabs has a planktonic dispersal stage consisting of a variable number of zoeal larvae followed by the molt to the megalopa stage. Megalopae undergo horizontal transport to the settlement site where they settle out of the water column and metamorphose to the first crab (juvenile) stage.
