Identification of putative circadian clock genes in the American horseshoe crab, Limulus polyphemus. [PDF]
Comp Biochem Physiol Part D Genomics Proteomics, 2016 While the American horseshoe crab, Limulus polyphemus, has robust circadian and circatidal rhythms, virtually nothing is known about the molecular basis of these rhythms in this species or any other chelicerate.

Zoothamnium duplicatum infestation of cultured horseshoe crabs (Limulus polyphemus) [PDF]
, 2015 An outbreak of the sessile peritrich Zoothamnium duplicatum in a pilot, commercial-scale Limulus polyphemus hatchery resulted in the loss of ∼ 96% (40,000) second/third instar larvae over a 61 day period.

Wiring a periscope--ocelli, retinula axons, visual neuropils and the ancestrality of sea spiders. [PDF]
, 2012 The Pycnogonida or sea spiders are cryptic, eight-legged arthropods with four median ocelli in a 'periscope' or eye tubercle. In older attempts at reconstructing phylogeny they were Arthropoda incertae sedis, but recent molecular trees placed them as the

The potential functions of mechanoreceptors found on trilobite larva of Limulus polyphemus (Linnaeus, 1758) [PDF]
Arthropods, 2022 In this study trilobite larvae and early juvenile stages of Limulus polyphemus (Linnaeus, 1758) are examined using light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy to examine the mechanoreceptors present on the cuticle.

Agglutination of Blood Cells in Limulus polyphemus.
Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1957 SummaryStable cell suspensions were prepared from Limulus blood using 0.05-0.10% formaldehyde. Washed cells could be agglutinated by as little as 0.01 volume of fresh homologous plasma. The initial stages of this reaction showed moderate concentration dependence and very strong temperature dependence.

Capture of lipopolysaccharide (endotoxin) by the blood clot: a comparative study. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 In vertebrates and arthropods, blood clotting involves the establishment of a plug of aggregated thrombocytes (the cellular clot) and an extracellular fibrillar clot formed by the polymerization of the structural protein of the clot, which is fibrin in ...
