Density assessment of muddy shore crabs in the eastern part of Bandar Abbas

open access: yes‬‭Majallah-i ̒Ilmī-i Shīlāt-i Īrān, 2010
rabs of intertidal zone of a muddy shore in Bandar Abbas were studied using monthly examination of Goharshad and Terminal stations during August 2005 to July 2006. Sampling was done by Corer and 14 species from 6 families were identified. Crabs were from

Exploring carapace phenotypic variation in female Fiddler Crab (H. Milne Edwards, 1837): insights into adaptive strategies and ecological significance

open access: yesJournal of Threatened Taxa
Fiddler crabs (Ocypodidae: Crustacea: Arthropoda) are globally documented but relatively understudied along the Indian coastline. Austruca annulipes, common across Indian mangrove habitats, remains insufficiently explored in terms of female morphology ...

The Mitochondrial Genome Reveals Phylogenetic Relationships and Gene Rearrangement in Brachyura

open access: yesJournal of Zoological Systematics and Evolutionary Research, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
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.

Anomuran and brachyuran trackways and resting trace from the Pliocene of Valduggia (Piedmont, NW Italy): environmental, behavioural, and taphonomic implications

open access: yesNatural History Sciences, 2016
We report a rich ichnofacies including trackways and a resting trace made by indeterminate anomuran and brachyuran crabs, and other organic sedimentary structures produced by invertebrates.

Sargassum beaching on mangrove sediments shifts microbial and crab metabolisms and enhances blue carbon storage

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 69, Issue 12, Page 2941-2953, December 2024.
Abstract Benthic metabolism and net carbon accumulation in mangroves sediments strongly depend on the quantity and quality of organic matter (OM) supplied, including material brought by coastal waters such as the macroalgae Sargassum spp. Mesocosms were used to assess the effect of eutrophication by Sargassum on mangrove sediments. The concentration of

Crustaceans (Decapoda & Stomatopoda) from Golfo Dulce (Pacific, Costa Rica) in the collection of the Museum of Zoology, University of Costa Rica

open access: yesCuadernos de investigación UNED, 2020
Introduction: The availability of recently updated lists of species from a particular area is an important first step to evaluate changes in species composition and abundance.

Invasive wild pig (Sus scrofa) diets on barrier islands in the southeastern United States

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 80, Issue 8, Page 3901-3911, August 2024.
Wild pigs on southeastern USA barrier islands exhibited a seasonal dietary shift to extensive foraging on beaches for crabs and other coastal invertebrates spring–summer during sea turtle nesting season. Abstract BACKGROUND Biological invasions are a leading cause of reductions in global biodiversity.

Species composition and distribution of brachyuran crabs in Duyen Hai town, Tra Vinh province

open access: yesVietnam Journal of Science, Technology and Engineering, 2018
Brachyuran crabs are the most diverse group of crustaceans. They are found in most marine habitats such as coral reefs, sandy beaches, rocky beaches, mangroves, and seagrass meadows.

Comparative analysis of gut microbiome of mangrove brachyuran crabs revealed patterns of phylosymbiosis and codiversification

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 12, June 2024.
Abstract The acquisition of microbial symbionts enables animals to rapidly adapt to and exploit novel ecological niches, thus significantly enhancing the evolutionary fitness and success of their hosts. However, the dynamics of host–microbe interactions and their evolutionary implications remain largely underexplored in marine invertebrates.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Uca lactea (Ocypodidae, Brachyura) and phylogenetic relationship in Brachyura

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019
Uca lactea is a crab belonging to the order Brachyura, but there is no report about its complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) in the literature. In this paper, the complete mitogenome of U.
