Effects of reduced salinities on metamorphosis of a freshwater-tolerant sesarmid crab, Armases roberti: Is upstream migration in the megalopa stage constrained by increasing osmotic stress? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Numerous species of estuarine and freshwater-tolerant crabs show an export strategy, i.e. an early larval downstream transport towards coastal marine waters, later zoeal development at higher salinities, and a return of the last larval stage, the ...

Larval Physiological Responses to Temperature Across the European Distribution Range of a Global Invader at Home: The Shore Crab Carcinus maenas

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 6, June 2025.
In larvae of the European shore crab Carcinus maenas, the temperature of highest survival decreased towards higher latitudes among populations distributed along the North European coast. C. maenas is native to Europe, but it is considered a global invader in coastal zones.

Macrogenetics Approach Reveals Spatial Trends and Drivers of Mitochondrial Genetic Diversity at Different Biological Organization Levels in Tropical Western Atlantic Decapods

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2025.
There is a knowledge gap concerning the genetic diversity distribution across marine invertebrates, and whether the latitudinal genetic diversity gradient results from congruent intraspecific trends. Our results indicate higher genetic diversity in lower latitudes is correlated to productivity and oxygen levels, but does not represent the accumulation ...
