Morphological study of laboratory reared first and second zoeal stages of Alpheus edwarsii (Audouim, 1826) (Crustacea: Decapoda: Caridea: Alpheidae) [PDF]
The ovigerous female of Alpheus edwarsii (Audouim, 1826) was collected from Buleji, Karachi, Pakistan, and retained in the laboratory. The larvae hatched after 4 days and subsisted within 3 days at room temperature 28oC-30oC in filtered seawater with a ...

Boreal and Lusitanian species display trophic niche variation in temperate waters
A contraction of the Boreal species niche and, reversely, an expansion of the Lusitanian species niche were observed in the Celtic Sea. These findings provided among the first evidence of fast trophic niche modifications conditioned by species thermal affinities and, as such, highlighted this ecosystem's potential vulnerability to climate change ...

Morphological description of the larval stages of Alpheus lobidens De Haan, 1850 (Crustacea: Decapoda: Caridea: Alpheidae) reared under laboratory conditions [PDF]
The Alpheus lobidens is a widely distributed snapping shrimp that lives on soft and hard bottoms in warm coastal environments (Hamdy and Dorgham, 2018).

Neurochemical diversity in the central olfactory pathway of Parhyale hawaiensis Abstract In mandibulate arthropods, the primary olfactory centers, termed olfactory lobes in crustaceans, are typically organized in distinct fields of dense synaptic neuropils called olfactory glomeruli.

This study compares the gut contents of snapper in soft‐sediment habitats within and outside of New Zealand green‐lipped mussel farms. Snapper within mussel farms were consistently found to have consumed different prey groups compared to the control snapper. The prey groups consumed by snapper in mussel farms are likely more nutritious and therefore of

Experimental confirmation of protandric simultaneous hermaphroditism in a Caridean shrimp outside of the genus Lysmata [PDF]
Caridean shrimps display a variety of sexual systems including gonochorism and various forms of protandry but rarely simultaneous hermaphroditism. Protandric simultaneous hermaphroditism (PSH) has thus far only been demonstrated in the genus Lysmata. The

The speciose pea crab family is studied using landmark‐based morphometrics. Mean carapace shapes of species groups, based on their host associations, are compared and visualized. Additionally, with the inclusion of a phylogeny, three morphological convergence events are studied and statistically tested in a phylomorphometric framework.

Fine‐scale diversity of prey detected in humpback whale feces
We investigated the prey consumed by humpback whales in three heterogenous regions in southern British Columbia, Canada, using opportunistic faecal sampling, microscopy, and DNA metabarcoding of 14 faecal samples. Fish including Pacific herring (Clupea pallasii), hake (Merluccius productus), and eulachon (Thaleichthys pacificus) were the most common ...

Diagnosis of a new subfamily within Barbouriidae (Decapoda: Caridea) [PDF]
Abstract In a recent revision of the Barbouridae Christoffersen, 1987, the authorship for the subfamily Calliasmatinae was cited as “Holthuis, 1973.” This is incorrect as the subfamily name has not been used before. We here diagnose the Calliasmatinae as a new subfamily and validate the name.
