Phylogenetic Analysis of the Stomatopoda (Malacostraca) [PDF]
ABSTRACT The stomatopods or mantis shrimps are malacostracan crustaceans of the subclass Hoplocarida. All extant hoplocarids belong to the order Stomatopoda and suborder Unipeltata. The Unipeltata comprises the extinct, stem-lineage sculdids, and the crown-group which includes the 19 extant families with more than 400 species.

Acoustic monitoring of swimming motions in the slipper lobster Scyllarides acquinoctialis (Lund, 1793) [PDF]
Members of the Malacostraca employ an escape swimming mode called a tail-flip. In this maneuver the uropods and telson are rapidly brought forward until they contact the ventral surface of the abdomen.

Shore crabs reveal novel evolutionary attributes of the mushroom body
Neural organization of mushroom bodies is largely consistent across insects, whereas the ancestral ground pattern diverges broadly across crustacean lineages resulting in successive loss of columns and the acquisition of domed centers retaining ancestral
