Evaluating and Advancing the Use of Shore‐Based Observers for Scientific Sampling and Catch Verification in High‐Volume Fisheries

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Shore‐based observers are increasingly being used in place of at‐sea observers to monitor and sample commercial fisheries catch. However, few evaluations assess whether these programs meet their stated goals or how to optimize them, and industry data are rarely tested for accuracy despite serving as the foundation for catch accounting. Using a

Shell occupation by the hermit crab Dardanus insignis (Decapoda, Diogenidae) from the north Coast of São Paulo state, Brazil

Brazilian Journal of Biology
The pattern of shell occupation by the hermit crab Dardanus insignis (Saussure, 1858) from the subtropical region of southeastern coast of Brazil was investigated in the present study. The percentage of shell types that were occupied and the morphometric

Expression of ionotropic receptors in terrestrial hermit crab’s olfactory sensory neurons

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2015
Coenobitidae are one out of at least five crustacean lineages which independently succeeded in the transition from water to land. This change in lifestyle required adaptation of the peripheral olfactory organs, the antennules, in order to sense chemical ...

Decapod crab zoeae as food for rearing cephalopod paralarvae [PDF]

, 1994
A simple method of providing a regular supply of live food for the experimental culture of paralarval cephalopods is described. The primary food source utilized was hatched zoeae of large laboratory populations of the hermit crab, Pagurus prideaux. Zoeal

Microbial influence on the formation and subsequent changes of vertebrate tracks: field experiments on present‐day coastal sediments

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The presence of microbial mats is often invoked to explain the good preservation of vertebrate tracks, because they can cover and biostabilize such structures. However, microbial influence on the sediment properties when the track is made and on the track characteristics has not been so thoroughly analysed.

Anatomical Description of the Main Gyri and Sulci of the Telencephalon of Alouatta belzebul

Anatomia, Histologia, Embryologia, Volume 55, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The Alouatta belzebul is a species of howler monkey, of the Atelidae family and genus Alouatta. It is endemic in Brazil and has a separate geographic distribution, with two populations occurring: in the Amazon and in the Atlantic Forest on the coast of Northeast Brazil. The species is classified as ‘vulnerable’, and this is mainly justified by

Shell choice and occupation by the hermit crab (Crustacea: Diogenidae) in laboratory environment

International Journal of Aquatic Biology, 2018
The Neotropical hermit crabs’ behaviour is rarely studied, although it is an important tool for the conservation of these invertebrates. In this context, the present study aimed to describe the hermit crab ethogram on its behaviour in the choice and ...
