MATING BEHAVIOR OF UCA LACTEA PERPLEXA (DECAPODA: OCYPODIDAE) [PDF]
Journal of Crustacean Biology, 1998 Some fiddler crab species (genus Uca) are known to mate either on the surface or underground. Here we describe these two modes of mating in Uca lactea perplexa and compare them with these mating modes in other ocypodid crabs. All surface matings, which lasted from 1.2-5.1 min, occurred near the burrow entrance of the female.

Growth of the Mangrove Crab Ucides Cordatus (Brachyura, Ocypodidae) [PDF]
Journal of Crustacean Biology, 2005 Abstract During monthly samplings between September 1998 and August 2000, 3,660 specimens of Ucides cordatus (Linnaeus, 1763) (2054 males and 1606 females) were obtained and examined for size (CW = carapace width) to determine growth-age equations for each sex.

Zoologica Scripta, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 504-518, May 2026.ABSTRACT The Indo‐West Pacific genus Metaplax comprises 11 recognised species inhabiting intertidal mudflats, some adjacent to mangroves. To resolve long‐standing uncertainties, we analysed mitochondrial (COI, 16S) and nuclear (28S) markers. Phylogenetic analyses recovered Metaplax as monophyletic and resolved four well‐supported clades—the M ...

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 3, March 2026.Yellow crazy ants (Anoplolepis gracilipes; YCA) are widespread invaders of islands across the Pacific and Indian Oceans. We investigated the ecological preferences and impacts of this species on a Polynesian atoll. We show that even at low abundances, this species can have important impacts on the fauna, including seabirds, and require management ...

Journal of Zoological Systematics and Evolutionary Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.The widespread Indo‐West Pacific ghost crab, Ocypode ceratophthalmus (Pallas, 1772) is found to be a species‐complex containing three distinct species. An Indian Ocean form, O. celadon sp. nov. occurs along the shores of East Africa, thence becoming an insular species spreading eastwards as far as Christmas Island.
