Thanatosis in freshwater anomurans (Decapoda: Aeglidae)

Journal of Natural History, 2013
The present study evaluated the occurrence of thanatosis in freshwater crustaceans. The duration of the thanatosis events was compared with respect to photoperiod and size for Aegla longirostri (Brazil) and Aegla denticulata denticulata (Chile). Adults of A. longirostri did not show thanatosis; juveniles were responsive only when they were out of water.

Crustacea: Decapoda

2017
This chapter describes the taxonomy of the Decapoda, the most species-rich order of Crustacea, with over 14,500 described extant species worldwide, commonly called shrimps, prawns, lobsters, or crabs. Decapods exhibit a vast diversity in shape, size, and colour.

“Crustacea”: Decapoda (Dendrobranchiata)

2015
The Decapoda consists of two taxa, the Dendrobranchiata, which include the penaeoid and sergestoid shrimps, and the Pleocyemata including the caridean shrimp, lobsters, and crabs. Four characters distinguish the Dendrobranchiata: (1) “dendrobranchiate” gill structure, (2) different patterning of the first three pairs of pereopods (walking limbs), (3 ...

A Note on Branchial Formulae of Decapoda

Journal of Crustacean Biology, 1984
mature Procaris differ from other adult eukyphids for which the branchial formula is known, and resemble some of the Dendrobranchiata, Euzygida, and Reptantia. The lack may be regarded as a paedomorphic specialization independently attained in the different decapod suborders, since the slightly richer formula found in the other Eukyphida is more ...

Carotenoids ofBetaeus harfordi (Crustacea: Decapoda)

Experientia, 1970
Die Carotinoide der GarneleBetaeus harfordi bestehen zu uber 93% aus Astaxanthin und seinen Estern. Die tiefblaue ausserliche Farbe wird durch ein Chromoproteid mit unverestertem Astaxanthin gebildet.

CLOTTING PROCESSES IN CRUSTACEA DECAPODA

Biological Reviews, 1985
Summary1. In Limulidae, all the factors involved in the coagulation processes are located inside the amoebocytes. The cellular coagulogen is a single 20,000‐polypeptide‐chain protein. It is converted into a non‐covalently crosslinked gel by a serine protease enzyme which cleaves a single peptide bond, releasing peptice C.2.

The Genus Cambarellus in Louisiana (Decapoda, Astacidae)

American Midland Naturalist, 1950
This is the third of a series of four papers on the crawfishes of Louisiana. The first two, on the genera Cambarellus and Orconectes respectively (Penn, 1950, 1952), should be referred to for the introductory remarks and a key to the abbreviations denoting disposition of the specimens.
