Motion After-Effects Induced by Dynamic Illumination in Crab Vision. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
While in humans, background motion can disrupt the detection of visual cues even after the moving background component has ceased, it remains unknown whether natural forms of background motion might also affect other animal visual systems. Here, we test whether prior exposure to naturally occurring ‘caustics’, a form of dynamically moving light ...

The highly rearranged mitochondrial genomes of the crabs Maja crispata and Maja squinado (Majidae) and gene order evolution in Brachyura [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We sequenced the mitochondrial genomes of the spider crabs Maja crispata and Maja squinado (Majidae, Brachyura). Both genomes contain the whole set of 37 genes characteristic of Bilaterian genomes, encoded on both \u3b1- and \u3b2-strands.

Climate Change and invasibility of the Antarctic benthos [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Benthic communities living in shallow-shelf habitats in Antarctica (<100-m depth) are archaic in their structure and function. Modern predators, including fast-moving, durophagous (skeleton-crushing) bony fish, sharks, and crabs, are rare or absent ...

Systematic assessment of the Panopeidae and broader Eubrachyura (Decapoda: Brachyura) using mitochondrial genomics [PDF]

open access: yesArthropod Systematics & Phylogeny, 2021
This study provides a broad phylogenetic analysis for the Eubrachyura, with the inclusion of three new Panopeidae mitochondrial genomes: Eurypanopeus depressus (flatback mud crab) (15,854bp), Panopeus herbstii (Atlantic mud crab) (15,812bp) and ...

Report of brachyuran crabs (Crustacea, Decapoda) from the Pliocene of Borgomanero, Novara (Piedmont, NW Italy)

open access: yesNatural History Sciences, 2018
Some brachyuran crabs from the Pliocene of a new outcrop nearby Borgomanero (Novara, Piedmont, NW Italy) are reported. This study allows us to recognize a peculiar brachyuran crabs assemblage including: Macropipus cf. M.

Feeding spectra and activity of the freshwater crab Trichodactylus kensleyi (Decapoda: Brachyura: Trichodactylidae) at La Plata basin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background: In inland water systems, it is important to characterize the trophic links in order to identify the ‘trophic species’ and, from the studies of functional diversity, understand the dynamics of matter and energy in these environments.

A study on Nutritional analysis of commercially important marine brachyuran crabs of Gujarat state, India

open access: yesJournal of biological studies, 2020
In the present study, three commercially important species of brachyuran crabs viz., Portunus (Portunus) segnis (Forskal, 1775), Charybdis (Charybdis) feriatus (Linnaeus, 1758) and Portunus (Portunus) sanguinolentus (Herbst, 1783) were analysed to know ...

Cross-species comparison of parasite richness, prevalence, and intensity in a native compared to two invasive brachyuran crabs

open access: gold, 2017
An introduced species’ invasion success may be facilitated by the release of natural enemies, like parasites, which may provide an invader with a competitive advantage over native species (enemy release hypothesis).
