Relative growth of the fiddler crab, Uca sindensis(Crustacea: Ocypodidae) in a subtropical mangrove in Pohl Port, Iran [PDF]
The relative growth of the fiddler crab Uca sindensis in Pohl Port was studied. Ten 0.5 m^2 quadrates were randomly sampled monthly during low tide periods from October 2009 to September 2010.

The Mitochondrial Genome Reveals Phylogenetic Relationships and Gene Rearrangement in Brachyura
Brachyura represents the focus of species diversity within Decapoda. However, this diversity increases the difficulty of species identification and obscures the natural phylogenetic relationships. Mitogenomes, with their rich phylogenetic signal and evolutionary informatics, provide critical insights into brachyuran systematics.

Cryptic Herbivorous Invertebrates Restructure the Composition of Degraded Coral Reef Communities in the Florida Keys, Florida, USA [PDF]
Coral reefs have been on a trajectory of decline for nearly a century due to a variety of factors that have contributed to the shift in these communities away from dominance by reef-building corals, with commensurate changes on community composition and ...

Sexual Dimorphism and Allometric Growth in the Enigmatic Pygmy Crab Petramithrax Pygmaeus (Bell, 1836) (Decapoda: Brachyura: Mithracidae), with a Formal Test of Rensch’s Rule in Spider Crabs (Superfamily Majoidea) [PDF]
Rensch’s rule, a well-studied macroevolutionary pattern of sexual size dimorphism (SSD), predicts, in monophyletic taxa in which males are the larger sex, that as the body size of the species in the clade increases, SSD increases as well. We tested Rensch’s rule in the superfamily Majoidea, a diverse clade of ‘spider crabs.’ Considering that having the
