Comparative Neuroanatomy of Hydrothermal Vent Shrimps: Ecological Differentiation Among Four Alvinocaridid Species

Journal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 534, Issue 8, August 2026.
Hydrothermal vent shrimps share a conserved brain architecture with enlarged mushroom bodies and terminal medullae, shaped by similar environmental pressures. Despite this similarity, some anatomical features near the brain vary between species, suggesting that some ecological factors, such as microhabitat and trophic strategies, also influence nervous

Diagnosis of a new subfamily within Barbouriidae (Decapoda: Caridea)

Journal of Crustacean Biology, 2021
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.

First Zoeal Stage of the Snapping Shrimp Alpheus Fabricius, 1798 (Caridea: Alpheidae): New Description of Alpheus bouvieri A. Milne‐Edwards, 1878 and Literature Review

Acta Zoologica, Volume 107, Issue 3, Page 361-376, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Based on adult morphological characters, the more than 300 species of Alpheus were divided into seven informal species groups, but some groups are not supported by molecular data. The aim here was to describe the zoea I of Alpheus bouvieri, and to do a review of the larval descriptions available in the literature, analysing whether the ...

Foraging Ecology and Fisheries Interactions of Common Bottlenose Dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) Inferred From Strandings in Western Iberian Atlantic Waters

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The common bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) is a resident species along the Portuguese mainland coast, yet knowledge of its stranding patterns and feeding ecology is scarce. This study presents a comprehensive assessment of strandings (n = 264, from 1980 to 2019) and feeding ecology based on stomach content analysis (n = 43 from 1997 to

Grooming as a secondary behavior in the shrimp Macrobrachium rosenbergii (Crustacea, Decapoda, Caridea) [PDF]

ZooKeys, 2014
The giant freshwater prawn, Macrobrachiumrosenbergii, is a large shrimp extensively used in aquaculture whose grooming behaviors were analyzed in this study. Macrobrachiumrosenbergii exhibits three unique male morphotypes that differ in their behavior, morphology and physiology: small-clawed males (SM), orange-clawed males (OC) and blue-clawed males ...

The small shrimp, Potimirim brasiliana Villalobos, 1959 (Crustacea, Atyidae) from Brazilian southeastern littoral, and its sexual maturity

Revista de Biologia Neotropical, 2020
The shrimp Potimirim brasiliana plays an important role in streams along the Brazilian coast as it feeds on the organic debris from the surrounding ecosystem. We determined the morphological sexual maturity of P.

Shedding light on the parasite communities and diet of the deep‐sea shark Deania profundorum (Smith & Radcliffe, 1912) (Squaliform: Centrophoridae) from the Avilés Canyon (southern Bay of Biscay)

Journal of Fish Biology, Volume 108, Issue 4, Page 1150-1169, April 2026.
Abstract Deep‐sea elasmobranchs are less resilient to the increasing scale of anthropogenic impacts such as fisheries, owing to their life‐history traits. The necessity for proper management measures is hampered by the scant knowledge on these taxa and their biology. Here we provide the first comprehensive insight into the parasite infracommunities and

OSMOREGULATION OF CRANGON SEPTEMSPINOSA SAY (CRUSTACEA: CARIDEA)

The Biological Bulletin, 1969
1. Freezing point determinations were made on time blood of Crangon septemspinosa exposed to five salinities (15, 25, 30, 35, 45‰), at two temperatures (5, 15° C).2. Sand shrimp, transferred acutely from 30‰ to either 15‰ or 45‰, experienced changes in hemolymph osmoconcentration which were related to the osmotic strength of the receiving medium.
