Effects of temperature increase on the physiology and behavior of fiddler crabs
Physiology & Behavior, 2020 Intertidal organisms rely on physiological and behavioral adjustments to maintain homeostasis under warm exposure. We examined the effects of the temperature increase related to climate warming on the physiology and behavior of two fiddler crab species: Leptuca uruguayensis, which inhabits mostly vegetated areas, and Leptuca leptodactyla, that inhabits

Global Change Asymmetrically Rewires Ecosystems
Ecology Letters, Volume 28, Issue 7, July 2025.Understanding how global environmental change affects food webs remains a key challenge. We synthesise empirical studies to reveal a general pattern of asymmetric rewiring, where anthropogenic pressures differentially impact habitats and restructure energy pathways within food webs.

Effects of autotomy compared to manual declawing on contests between males for females in the edible crab, Cancer pagurus: implications for fishery practice and animal welfare. [PDF]
, 2016 In many decapod fisheries, claws are removed and the animal returned to the sea with the assumption that there is little impact on the fitness and welfare of the animal, or onthe productivity of the population.

Coalition among male fiddler crabs
Nature, 2004 Until now, no compelling evidence has emerged from studies of animal territoriality to indicate that a resident will strategically help a neighbour to defend its territory against an intruder. We show here that territory-owning Australian fiddler crabs will judiciously assist other crabs in defending their neighbouring territories.

The evolutionary biology of dance without frills [PDF]
, 2016 Recently psychologists have taken up the question of whether dance is reliant on unique human adaptations, or whether it is rooted in neural and cognitive mechanisms shared with other species 1, 2. In its full cultural complexity, human dance clearly has
