The importance of feeding in the larval development of the ghost shrimp Callichirus major (Decapoda: Callianassidae) [PDF]
Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2008 The present study investigated whether the callianassid Callichirus major shows a lecithotrophic behaviour during larval development. Two experiments were carried out.

Growth, inter- and intraspecific variation, palaeobiogeography, taphonomy and systematics of the Cenozoic ghost shrimp <i>Glypturus</i>. [PDF]
J Syst Palaeontol, 2015 Studies in systematic palaeontology are greatly aided when numerous, well-preserved specimens are available so that quantitative methods can be used to substantiate qualitative observations. This is often not the case for fossil decapod crustaceans due to their relatively low preservation potential.

Systematics, phylogeny, and taphonomy of ghost shrimps (Decapoda): a perspective from the fossil record [PDF]
Arthropod Systematics & Phylogeny, 2015 Ghost shrimps of Callianassidae and Ctenochelidae are soft-bodied, usually heterochelous decapods representing major bioturbators of muddy and sandy (sub)marine substrates. Ghost shrimps have a robust fossil record spanning from the Early Cretaceous (~ 133 Ma) to the Holocene and their remains are present in most assemblages of Cenozoic decapod ...

Impact of Beach Restoration on the Deep-burrowing Ghost Shrimp, Callichirus islagrande [PDF]
Journal of Coastal Research, 2004 Restorations of barrier islands can be beneficial to coastal marshes, but may also have detrimental effects on intertidal macrobenthic communities. Two barrier islands of the Isles Dernieres chain of Louisiana were recently renourished with dredged sediments taken from the adjacent estuary.

Hydraulic activities by ghost shrimp Neotrypaea californiensis induce oxic−anoxic oscillations in sediments [PDF]
Marine Ecology Progress Series, 2012 Porewater pressure sensing, time-lapse photography, and planar optode imaging of oxygen were applied to investigate hydraulic activities by thalassinidean ghost shrimp Neo - trypaea californiensis and the associated dynamics of oxygen in and around their burrows. Ghost shrimp were hydraulically active 40% of the time. For >90% of this time the sediment
