The cost of incline locomotion in ghost crabs (Ocypode quadrata) of different sizes

Journal of Comparative Physiology B: Biochemical, Systemic, and Environmental Physiology, 2011
It is well established that the metabolic cost of horizontal locomotion decreases as a regular function of animal body mass, regardless of body form and phylogeny. How body size affects the cost of incline exercise remains much less clear. Studies on vertebrates have led to the hypotheses that the cost of vertical work is independent of body mass and ...

The impact of chasing stress on the metabolism of the Atlantic Ghost Crab Ocypode quadrata (Fabricius, 1787) [PDF]

open access: bronzeJournal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, 2023
AbstractOcypode quadrata, a Ghost crab species found along the western Atlantic coast, is considered a bioindicator of anthropogenic impact on sandy beaches. Ghost Crabbing, a touristic activity in which ghost crabs are chased just for fun, is a potentially threatening activity for this crab. In crustaceans, metabolites such as glucose and lactate, and

Larval development of Ocypode quadrata (Brachyura: Crustacea) under laboratory conditions

Marine Biology, 1972
The larvae of Ocypode quadrata (Fabricius) have been reared in the laboratory, from hatching to megalopa stage, at 35‰ S, 25°C. The five zoeal stages and the megalopa are described, including functional appendages of each stage. On the basis of morphological characteristics, the first zoeal and megalopa stages of O.
