Population Dynamics of the Fiddler Crab <i>Tubuca rhizophorae</i> (Tweedie, 1950) in the Mekong Delta, Vietnam. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThis study uses monthly field surveys and length‐frequency analysis to examine the population dynamics of the fiddler crab Tubuca rhizophorae in the Mekong Delta, Vietnam. Key parameters, including growth rate, mortality, and exploitation rate, were estimated, revealing that the species experiences rapid growth but is subject to significant fishing ...

Variation in the Adult Sex Ratio and Morphological Traits of <i>Cardisoma guanhumi</i> (Latreille, 1828) in Contrasting Habitats in the Southwest of the Gulf of Mexico. [PDF]
Ecol EvolAt a regional scale, we found a bias toward one sex according to the habitat and differences in weight and size between females and males. ABSTRACT The habitat and its environmental conditions, when optimal, influence the reproduction and survival of organisms, since they can have an impact on demographic parameters such as adult sex ratio (ASR ...
