In order to evaluate their tolerance to low salinities, zoeae of the fiddler crab Uca tangeri from the Rio San Pedro population (southwestern Spain) were reared in the laboratory at 20ºC and at three salinities (16, 24 and 32).

Comparison of the coexistence pattern of mangrove macrobenthos between natural and artificial reforestation. [PDF]
This study explored which method is more effective in restoring the biodiversity of mangrove macrobenthos in existing methods for abandoned pond‐to‐mangrove restoration including artificial and natural restorations. We found that similar species composition, lower biotic heterogeneity and species interaction among macrobenthos at artificial restoration

Intersexual differences in the mudballs of Uca annulipes (Decapoda: Ocypodidae) [PDF]
This study investigated the features of mudballs produced by male and female Uca annulipes. Both sexes formed mudballs from mud excavated from within the burrow during the final hour of the low tide period. Males placed the centre of the mudball aggregation and the furthest mudball significantly further from the burrow than females.
