Sensitivity of Pagurus bernhardus (L.) to substrate-borne vibration and anthropogenic noise [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
© 2015 Elsevier B.V. Despite the prevalence of vibration produced by anthropogenic activities impacting the seabed there are few data and little information as to whether these are detected by crustaceans and whether they interfere with their behaviour ...

Diversity and Molecular Phylogeny of Pagurid Hermit Crabs (Anomura: Paguridae: Pagurus)

open access: yesDiversity, 2022
Species of the genus Pagurus have diversified into a wide variety of marine habitats across the world. Despite their worldwide abundance, the genus diversity and biogeographical relationship are relatively less understood at species-level.

Substrate Complexity Drives Hermit Crab (Diogenidae) Diversity and Ecological Flexibility Across Sand, Rubble, and Coral Habitats in Tarahan Island, Indonesia

open access: yesAceh Journal of Animal Science
Research on the role of benthic substrates in shaping hermit crab communities along coastlines remains relatively limited, despite the important role this group plays in coastal benthic ecosystems.

No compromise between metabolism and behavior of decorator crabs in reduced pH conditions. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Many marine calcifiers experience metabolic costs when exposed to experimental ocean acidification conditions, potentially limiting the energy available to support regulatory processes and behaviors. Decorator crabs expend energy on decoration camouflage

Binary individual recognition in hermit crabs [PDF]

open access: yesBehavioral Ecology and Sociobiology, 2004
One mechanism that permits the maintenance of dominance hierarchies is individual recognition, defined as the ability of an animal to recognize a conspecific on the basis of one or more identifying cues, and to associate it with experiences of victories or defeats that the animal has gained from preceding encounters with that particular individual.

Comparative analysis of shell occupation by two southern populations of the hermit crab Loxopagurus loxochelis (Decapoda, Diogenidae)

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Oceanography, 2012
The present study aimed to comparatively verify the relation between the hermit crabs and the shells they use in two populations of Loxopagurus loxochelis.

Sentience in cephalopod molluscs: an updated assessment

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article evaluates the evidence for sentience – the capacity to have feelings – in cephalopod molluscs: octopus, cuttlefish, squid, and nautilus. Our framework includes eight criteria, covering both whether the animal's nervous system could support sentience and whether their behaviour indicates sentience.

Boldness and asymmetric contests: Role- and outcome-dependent effects of fighting in hermit crabs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Consistent between-individual differences in behavior have been demonstrated in an array of species from diverse taxa, and variation in boldness may be associated with variation in aggressiveness.

Beyond mammals: the evolution of chewing and other forms of oropharyngeal food processing in vertebrates

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal food processing exhibits a remarkable diversity among vertebrates, reflecting the evolution of specialised ‘processing centres’ associated with the mandibular, hyoid, and branchial arches. Although studies have detailed various food‐processing strategies and mechanisms across vertebrates, a coherent and comprehensive terminology ...

Exposure of benthic invertebrates to sediment vibration: From laboratory experiments to outdoor simulated pile-driving [PDF]

open access: yes
Activities directly interacting with the seabed, such as pile-driving, can produce vibrations that have the potential to impact benthic invertebrates within their vicinity.
