Revision of the Calappidae [PDF]

open access: yesAustralian Museum Memoir, 1984
The brachyuran CaJappidae sensu Balss (1957) is composed of three subfamilies, Calappinae, Matutinae and Orithyinae. However, an examination of the history of the comprehension of these three groups shows that they have been interpreted in various ways. From critical re-examination of Balss's diagnosis and from reconsideration of all available data, it

On the Fallacy of Color Discrimination: The Rise and Fall of a Rare and Endemic Box Crab (Brachyura: Calappidae)

open access: yesJournal of Zoological Systematics and Evolutionary Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The Mediterranean Sea is one of the major reservoirs of marine biodiversity and harbors an exceptionally high number of endemic species. Nevertheless, the taxonomic status of many of these endemics still requires confirmation through integrative, modern approaches.

The Mitochondrial Genome Reveals Phylogenetic Relationships and Gene Rearrangement in Brachyura

open access: yesJournal of Zoological Systematics and Evolutionary Research, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Brachyura represents the focus of species diversity within Decapoda. However, this diversity increases the difficulty of species identification and obscures the natural phylogenetic relationships. Mitogenomes, with their rich phylogenetic signal and evolutionary informatics, provide critical insights into brachyuran systematics.
