Ecological Observations on Callianassidae of Puget Sound
Ecology, 1929The Callianassidae, burrowing marine crustaceans which resemble the hermit crabs in some respects and the lobsters and crayfish in others, are a great menace to the oyster industry of Puget Sound. In fact, although not predacious, and causing damage which is indirect, they are considered the worst enemy of the native oyster, Ostrea lurida. Some regions

The axiidean families Callianassidae and Ctenochelidae, sometimes treated together as Callianassoidea, are shown to represent a monophyletic taxon. It comprises 265 accepted species in 74 genera, twice this number of species if fossil taxa are included. The higher taxonomy of the group has proved difficult and fluid.

Adult ghost shrimp, Callichirus islagrande (Schmitt, 1935), are obligate inhabitants of burrow systems that they excavate deeply into beachfront sediments in the northern Gulf of Mexico. Mating presumably occurs in these burrows but has never been directly observed in C. islagrande or any other thalassinidean.

Two resin casts of the burrows of the thalassinidean decapodLepidophthalmus louisianensis were madein situ on a tidal flat at Dauphin Island, Alabama. The following burrow sections can be recognised: an upper narrow shaft leading from the surface to a depth between 17 and 28 cm; a main wider shaft with several chambers leading to a depth of more than 1

Burrows of the thalassinidean shrimp Biffarius arenosus (Poore, 1975) were investigated by in situ resin-casting on an intertidal sandflat in Western Port, southern Australia. Even though burrow casts exhibited interspecific variation, all had at least two openings, a U-shaped top and a series of tunnels and chambers.

Abstract Coring and pumping methods, commonly used to determine the abundance and population parameters of burrowing ghost shrimp, were assessed in three widely separated south-eastern Australian estuaries. First, a comparison of two sizes of coring tube (0.04 and 0.07 m2) revealed no significant differences in catches of the ghost shrimp Trypaea ...

Mud Shrimp (Callianassa) Larvae (Crustacea, Decapoda, Callianassidae) from Virginia Plankton
Chesapeake Science, 1973Larval stages attributed to three species ofCallianassa (designated as spp. A, B and C) taken in plankton samples from the lower Chesapeake Bay are described and figured. Evidence concerning tentative identification of spp. A and B is discussed, and it is suggested that these larvae may be ascribed toCallianassa biformis andCallianassa atlantica ...

The fossil record of the ghost shrimp genus Balsscallichirus Sakai, 2011 (Crustacea: Decapoda: Callianassidae) is revised. Barnardcallichirus Sakai, 2011 and Tirmizicallichirus Sakai, 2011 are considered subjective synonyms of Balsscallichirus. Based on the examination of extant species it is argued that the morphology of the major cheliped merus, in ...
