Target Detection Is Enhanced by Polarization Vision in a Fiddler Crab [PDF]
Current Biology, 2015 We are constantly surprised by the ability of relatively simple animals to perform precise visually guided movements within complex visual scenes, often using eyes with limited resolution. Exceptional examples include the capture of airborne prey by dragonflies, the learning flights of bees and wasps, and the tracking of conspecifics by crabs on ...

Advanced Materials Technologies, Volume 11, Issue 12, 18 June 2026.This review presents recent progress in vision‐augmented wearable interfaces that combine artificial vision, soft wearable sensors, and exoskeletal robots. Inspired by biological visual systems, these technologies enable multimodal perception and intelligent human–machine interaction.

Influence of temperature on daily locomotor activity in the crab Uca pugilator. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Animals living in the intertidal zone are exposed to prominent temperature changes. To cope with the energetic demands of environmental thermal challenges, ectotherms rely mainly on behavioral responses, which may change depending on the time of the day ...

Ladies First: Coerced Mating in a Fiddler Crab
PLOS ONE, 2016 In some species males increase their reproductive success by forcing females to copulate with them, usually by grasping the female or pinning her to the ground to prevent her from escaping. Here we report an example of males coercing copulation by trapping a female in a confined space.

A Mathematical Modelling for the Cheliped Regeneration with Handedness in Fiddler Crab [PDF]
Bulletin of Mathematical Biology, 2006 An enormously developed giant cheliped with the other small one characterizes the adult male fiddler crab. Some experiments with artificial severances of cheliped indicate that such a handedness in the cheliped size is maintained even after the regeneration of severed cheliped.

Effects of size on dominance behavior in male fiddler crabs, Uca pugnax [PDF]
, 2017 Individuals in many group-living species form dominance hierarchies, and higher ranked individuals have more access to resources or mates. Rank often depends on size.

Zoologia (Curitiba), 2009 The fiddler crabs Uca panacea Novak & Salmon, 1974 and Uca pugilator (Bosc, 1802) are closely related North American species that are sympatric along the north coast of Gulf of Mexico. Since U.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.Does dispersal differ between the sexes? Our findings underscore the power of genomic markers to study sex‐biased dispersal, elucidate sex determination systems, and facilitate sex assignment, with important implications for species conservation and management. ABSTRACT Does dispersal differ between the sexes?

Thermal and desiccation constraints drive territory preference in fiddler crabs [PDF]
, 2019 Territory quality is often critical for reproductive success, survival and ultimately fitness. Holding a good quality territory can make a male more attractive to females but can also have several other advantages.
