Macrocrustaceans of non-consolidated sublittoral of the São Vicente Estuarine Bay Complex, São Paulo state, Brazil [PDF]
Despite the economic importance of the carcinofauna which inhabits the estuarine regions of São Vicente, state of São Paulo, Brazil, there are few studies of the biology, distribution and biodiversity of crustaceans.

The acquisition of microbial symbionts enables animals to rapidly adapt to and exploit novel ecological niches, thus significantly enhancing the evolutionary fitness and success of their hosts. However, the dynamics of host–microbe interactions and their

Taxonomy and Ecology of Brachyuran Crabs in Sunderbans
Indian part of Sunderbans is a wide area spread between the rivers Matla in the west and Roymangal in the east. The Mangroves are unique intertidal ecosystem that supports the biodiversity in a wide band. The brachyuran crabs prefer mangroves to complete their biological cycle and along with the crabs, shrimps, prawns, lobsters are also found to be ...

Temperature generally drives latitudinal patterns in the strength of trophic interactions, including consumption rates. However, local community and other environmental conditions might also affect consumption, disrupting latitudinal gradients, which results in complex large‐scale patterns.

ABSTRACT This study investigated shape variations and morphological integration between the components of crusher and cutter claws in two species of swimming crabs, Callinectes danae and Callinectes ornatus. The propodi and dactyli of the claws were analysed in males and females of both species, using geometric morphometric techniques to identify ...
