Comparative morphology of the seminal receptacles of Ocypode quadrata (Fabricius, 1787) (Brachyura, Ocypodoidea) [PDF]
The seminal receptacles of the Eubrachyura are an ecto-mesodermic differentiation of the genital ducts where the spermatophores are stored and fertilization takes place. The position in which the oviduct is connected to the seminal receptacles varies among species and two types, dorsal and ventral, can be distinguished.

REPRODUCTIVE CYCLE AND RECRUITMENT PERIOD OF OCYPODE QUADRATA (DECAPODA, OCYPODIDAE) AT A SANDY BEACH IN SOUTHEASTERN BRAZIL [PDF]
Abstract The reproductive cycle and recruitment period of a ghost crab population from Ubatuba, Sao Paulo, Brazil were investigated by means of examining the developmental stages of gonads of breeding crabs and the ingress of young recruits to the studied population.

Metabolic rates in the squareback marsh crab Armases cinereum
We show that the flatback marsh crab Armases cinereum has relatively high rates of energy use. This likely limits the ability of this species to act as a vector for energy subsidies between salt marsh and forest habitats, as has previously been hypothesized. Abstract Metabolic rate is a basic individual metric that extends beyond the individual to link

Discrete element models for understanding the biomechanics of fossorial animals
The dynamics (forces, work, and soil displacements) of burrowing by North American Badger were predicted for different forms of badger claw and manus, using numerical models. The results indicate that the modern manus with 5 digits has indeed advantages.
