The fiddler crab, Minuca pugnax, follows Bergmann's rule
Ecology and Evolution, 2019 Bergmann's rule predicts that organisms at higher latitudes are larger than ones at lower latitudes. Here, we examine the body size pattern of the Atlantic marsh fiddler crab, Minuca pugnax (formerly Uca pugnax), from salt marshes on the east coast of ...

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.

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

Fiddler crabs from highly disturbed beaches are more sensitive to human presence [PDF]
Anais da Academia Brasileira de CiênciasThe presence of humans frequently modifies the behavior of animals, particularly their foraging patterns, compromising energetic demands. The fiddler crab Leptuca leptodactyla inhabits mangroves with high degrees of anthropogenic influence.
