Microbial mats and thalassinid shrimp: Spatial and geochemical interactions in a modern intertidal environment

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 4, Page 1001-1029, June 2026.
ABSTRACT This research examines the spatial and geochemical interactions between mat‐forming microorganisms and thalassinid shrimp in an intertidal flat situated on the shores of Willapa Bay, Washington, USA. The study serves as a contemporary analog for the relationships between mats and burrowing organisms in deep time.

Variation in the body growth parameters of the ghost crab Ocypode quadrata from morphodynamically distinct sandy beaches

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Oceanography
Investigations of patterns of distribution of sandy beach macrofauna show that dissipative beaches tend to concentrate higher richness and biomass at the intertidal zone, as well as better fitness and larger sizes of a species, than reflective beaches ...

High Ammonia and Low pH in the Urine of the Ghost Crab, Ocypode quadrata

open access: yesThe Biological Bulletin, 1994
Nitrogen excreted into the urine (100 mM were found in the urine of laboratory-held Ocypode quadrata, suggesting that this notion might not be applicable to all crustaceans. To address this issue, hemolymph and urine were removed from freshly captured O. quadrata and analyzed for nitrogenous catabolites and major ions. Hemolymph composition was similar

Relative growth and sexual dimorphism of Austinixa aidae (Brachyura: Pinnotheridae): a symbiont of the ghost shrimp Callichirus major from the southwestern Atlantic Crecimiento relativo y dimorfismo sexual en Austinixa aidae (Barchyura: Pinnotheridae): un simbionte del camarón fantasma Callichirus major del Atlántico sudoccidental

open access: yesLatin American Journal of Aquatic Research, 2011
Species of the family Pinnotheridae constitute an ideal group for morphometric studies due to their complex morphological adaptations. These adaptations respond to the selective pressure of a symbiotic life style. This study describes the relative growth
