Insights into diet and niche separation in the context of prey availability between two sympatric whiprays in a tropical intertidal estuary

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Increasing evidence supports associations between various elasmobranch species and estuarine habitats, particularly during early life stages. However, with substantial knowledge gaps surrounding spatial habitat use and trophic ecology of estuary‐associated species in Australia, we cannot reliably assess the functional importance of these areas

Deposit-feeding by the ghost crab Ocypode quadrata (Fabricius)

Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 1981
Abstract Observations using a videotape system on a secluded, Georgia, barrier beach revealed that the ghost crab Ocypode quadrata (Fabricius) exhibits diurnal deposit-feeding behavior similar to that manifested by the sand fiddler crab Uca pugilator (Bosc).

Studies on the ecology and behaviour of the ghost crab, Ocypode cursor (L.) in northern Cyprus

Scientia Marina, 1999
Aspects of the ecology and behaviour of Ocypode cursor were studied on the beaches of Northern Cyprus. The crabs were widely distributed around the north coast of the island, occurring on 68 of the 77 sandy beaches investigated.

That sinkin’ feeling: Environmentally induced distress on a disappearing island

Medical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Residents of Tangier Island, Virginia, a subsiding island in the Chesapeake Bay, embody psychosocial dimensions of environmental change. Analysis of ethnographic data shows islanders’ experiences and articulations of anxiety, panic, and despair as “that sinkin’ feeling,” resulting from the stress of living with the long‐term threat of imminent

Atlantic ghost crabs (Ocypode quadrata) as coastal bioindicators: assessing human impact across the South Atlantic Bight

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution
Sandy beach ecosystems are increasingly threatened by human activity, making it critical to effectively evaluate their health. While this has often been done using an urbanization index (a tool that quantifies the level of human impact) and a ...

Complete mitochondrial genome of the ghost crab Ocypode stimpsoni Ortmann, 1897 (Brachyura: Decapoda: Ocypodidae) and its phylogenetic relationship in Brachyura

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020
In this paper, we analyzed the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Ocypode stimpsoni. Whole-genome sequencing was performed using the MGISEQ-2000 platform.

Field‐grown coastal dune plants exhibit similar survival, growth, and biomass in recycled glass substrate and natural beach sand

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Restoration of coastal dunes following tropical storm events often requires renourishment of sand substrate dredged from offshore sources, although dredging has well‐described negative ecological impacts and high economic costs. As a potential solution, recycled glass sand (cullet) made from crushed glass bottles has been proposed as a potential ...
