The Occurrence of Dual-gender Imposex in Japanese Freshwater Crab. [PDF]
Tributylin (TBT)-induced imposex phenomena have been reported only in mollusks. Our findings reveal that imposex is not a phenomenon exclusive to mollusks. The imposex phenomenon has been found to occur in a common Japanese freshwater crab, Geothelphusa dehaani, which inhabits TBT-uncontaminated mountain streams in Japan. In addition, the imposex of G.

Structural complexity of hard substrates shapes shallow marine benthic communities
Structurally complex habitats offer niche diversity, with varying biotic and abiotic conditions, generally leading to higher biodiversity compared to simpler habitats. However, our understanding of the response of ecological communities to increased complexity and the underlying drivers remain ambiguous due to discrepancies in how complexity is ...

Comparative Proteomics of Salinity Stress Responses in Fish and Aquatic Invertebrates
ABSTRACT Fluctuating salinity is symptomatic of climate change challenging aquatic species. The melting of polar ice, rising sea levels, coastal surface and groundwater salinization, and increased evaporation in arid habitats alter salinity worldwide. Moreover, the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events such as rainstorms and floods increase,

The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of the mountain crab Indochinamon bhumibol
Indochinamon bhumibol has been found as the biggest freshwater crab in Thailand. In this study, we report the first complete sequence of mitochondrial genome from I. bhumibol encoding 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNAs, and 2 ribosomal RNAs.

Freshwater crabs from the highlands of the Venezuelan Guayana
Neotropical freshwater crabs have a wide distribution range from southern Mexico to Peru, including the entire Amazon basin and the Guianas. Among them, highland species of the genus Microthelphusa Pretzmann, 1968, have a very peculiar biogeography. Their distribution is insular and discontinuous, presenting considerable separation between them. Twelve
