Integrative Phylogenetic and Morphological Analyses Reveal Two New Species of Porcellanid Crabs and Resurrect <i>Porcellanella picta</i> Stimpson, 1858 (Decapoda: Porcellanidae). [PDF]
This study uses integrative phylogenetic and morphological analyses to clarify the taxonomy of Porcellanella crabs, revealing four distinct species. The authors resurrect Porcellanella picta as a valid species and describe two new species from Australia (P. brevidentata n. sp. and P. longiloba n. sp.).

Linking eye design with host symbiont relationships in pontoniine shrimps (crustacea, decapoda, palaemonidae) [PDF]
Symbiosis is prevalent in the marine environment with many studies examining the effects of such interactions between host and symbiont. Pontoniine shrimps are a group whose ecology is characterised by symbiotic interactions.

Abstract Plankton play a key role in marine food webs by producing and transferring organic matter and energy to higher trophic levels. To define the trophic structure and interactions within the planktonic communities in the Gulf of Naples, we determined carbon and nitrogen stable isotope ratios in particulate organic matter (POM, <20 μm ...
