Phylogeography and phylogeny of the genus Acanthonyx (Decapoda, Epialtidae) in the north‐east Atlantic and Mediterranean

Zoologica Scripta, 2017
The genus Acanthonyx Latreille, 1828 (Majoidea, Epialtidae) contains 17 or 18 known species, depending on competing taxonomic views, that are widely distributed across the world. Morphologically, most species look superficially alike, and therefore, similar taxonomic concepts have been described under different names.

Remarkable zoeas of two species of deep-sea spider crabs (Brachyura, Majoidea, Epialtidae, Pisinae)

2012
The first zoeas of two pisinine species, Laubierinia nodosa (Rathbun, 1916) and Oxypleurodon stimpsoni Miers, 1886, are described and illustrated from laboratory-hatched materials. Among majoid larvae, the present zoeas share a salient distinguishing character in having a pair of forehead cornua on the carapace.
