Historical Connectivity and Demography of the Ferocious Reef Crab, Eriphia ferox (Crustacea; Eriphiidae), Demonstrate That Taoyuan Algal Reef Is an Essential Population Source Along the East Taiwan Strait

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
The east Taiwan Strait is largely fringed by sandy and muddy habitats. However, a massive algal reef made of crustose coralline algae has been found along the coast off Taoyuan city in northwestern Taiwan.

Crustacean Molting: Regulation and Effects of Environmental Toxicants

, 2017
In crustaceans the growth of the animal occurs by shedding of old exoskeleton and formation of new exoskeleton. Immediately after ecdysis the newly synthesized cuticle up takes water to expand new exoskeleton thereby size.
