Predation of the fiddler crab, Minuca osa (Brachyura: Ocypodidae), by Eudocimus albus (Pelecaniformes: Threskiornithidae) from Ponuga, Veraguas, Panama

open access: yesRevista Ciencias Marinas y Costeras, 2023
Numerous avian species prey on fiddler crabs, yet the ecological relationships involving Minuca osa crabs and their predators remain poorly understood. We report the first documented cases of M. osa predation by White Ibis, Eudocimus albus.

The First Record of Ocypode sinensis (Decapoda: Ocypodidae) from the Korean Peninsula: How the Complete Mitochondrial Genome Elucidates the Divergence History of Ghost Crabs

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
Ghost crabs, as a species of the Ocypode within the subfamily Ocypodinae, are distributed in the upper intertidal zone worldwide and are ecologically remarkable. They play an important role in the energy circulation in the intertidal zone and are used as

The microbial landscape in bioturbated mangrove sediment: A resource for promoting nature‐based solutions for mangroves

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 16, Issue 8, Page 1584-1602, August 2023., 2023
Bioturbation, through altering the sediment microbiome and environment, determining a “halo effect”, can ameliorate conditions for plant growth, highlighting the potential of the mangrove microbiome as a nature‐based solution to sustain mangrove development and support the role of this ecosystem to deliver essential ecological services.

Walkways as an environmental enrichment tool on sandy beaches? A case study with ghost crabs (Crustacea, Ocypodidae)

open access: yesAnimal Biodiversity and Conservation, 2023
Confined to a few favorable patches of habitat within a mosaic of physical drivers, many species disappear from human-disturbed beaches. However, mobile species may change their distribution and select more appropriate habitats as a response to ...

Morphology of the gastric mill teeth in dotillid crabs (Crustacea: Brachyura: Dotillidae) from Indonesia

open access: yesJournal of Morphology, Volume 284, Issue 7, July 2023., 2023
Among deposit‐feeder crab, the morphology of the gastric mill teeth is well correlated with the substrate types. We provide descriptions of the morphology of the median and lateral teeth on gastric mills in eight species of dotillid crabs with phylogenetic analysis using COI and 16S rRNA genes.

Sexual selection and predation drive the repeated evolution of stridulation in Heteroptera and other arthropods

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 98, Issue 3, Page 942-981, June 2023., 2023
ABSTRACT Acoustic and substrate‐borne vibrations are among the most widely used signalling modalities in animals. Arthropods display a staggering diversity of vibroacoustic organs generating acoustic sound and/or substrate‐borne vibrations, and are fundamental to our broader understanding of the evolution of animal signalling.

White spot syndrome virus host range and impact on transmission

open access: yesReviews in Aquaculture, Volume 14, Issue 4, Page 1843-1860, September 2022., 2022
Abstract White spot syndrome virus (WSSV), the etiological agent of white spot disease (WSD), is a significant pathogen affecting shrimp farming industry worldwide. White spot syndrome virus is a generalist virus mainly infecting decapod crustaceans. The aims of this review were to: (1) Re‐evaluate and update the status of reported WSSV host and vector
