THE VISUAL ACUITY OF THE FIDDLER-CRAB, UCA PUGNAX [PDF]

Journal of General Physiology, 1935
The visual acuity of the fiddler-crab can be measured at various illuminations by means of its response to a moving visual pattern. The method, although similar to that used by Hecht and Wolf for the bee and Hecht and Wald for Drosophila, must be modified to give consistent results.

Polymorphic Microsatellite Loci for Paternity Analysis in the Fiddler Crab Uca mjoebergi

, 2016
Microsatellite markers were developed for the fiddler crab Uca mjoebergi for use in paternity assignment. Five highly variable loci were found to amplify reliably in U.

Fiddler Crabs (Crustacea: Decapoda: Ocypodidae) From Coastal Ecuador and the Galápagos Islands: Species Descriptions and DNA Barcodes

Ecology and Evolution
Neotropical regions near the equator are recognized as speciation “hot spots” reflecting their abundant biodiversity. In western South America, the coasts of Panama, Colombia, Ecuador, the Galápagos Archipelago, and northern Peru form the Tropical ...

New records of Leptuca tallanica (Brachyura, Ocypodidae) in the Parita Gulf, Panama, Pacific

Revista Peruana de Biología
We present the first report of the Peruvian Fiddler Crab, Leptuca tallanica (von Hagen, 1968), in Panama. The species identification from two sites in the Parita Gulf was confirmed by the presence of a moderately wide front, comma-shaped patches of pile ...

Contrasting Patterns of Clinal Genetic Diversity and Potential Colonization Pathways in Two Species of Western Atlantic Fiddler Crabs.

PLoS ONE, 2016
Fiddler crabs (Brachyura, Ocypodidae), like many other marine organisms, disperse via planktonic larvae. A lengthy pelagic larval duration is generally assumed to result in genetic connectivity even among distant populations.

NOTES ON THE BEHAVIOR OF THE FIDDLER CRAB

The Biological Bulletin, 1926
The typical mode of digging a burrow is described and some problems discussed which are closely connected with the burrowing instinct.The choice of the spot where the digging is started is determined by very many factors. Phototaxis and thigmotaxis are not sufficient explanations.The end-chamber of the burrow functions as an air-chamber during the high
