In this study, we report the association between the pea crab Zaops ostreum (Say, 1817) living in the oyster Crassostrea brasiliana (Lamarck, 1819), collected in an estuarine region of Northeast Brazil. Oysters were collected along the mouth of the Santa Cruz Channel, Barra de Catuama (State of Pernambuco), between 2016 and 2017.

Crescimento da prodissoconcha de ostras do gênero Crassostrea Sacco, 1897 (Bivalvia, Ostreidae)
Foi realizado o acompanhamento do crescimento larval de três espécies de ostras do gênero Crassostrea. As espécies Crassostrea rhizophorae (Guilding, 1828) e C. brasiliana (Lamarck, 1819) são ostras nativas do litoral do Paraná e são comercializadas nos
