Genetic evidence for multiple paternity in the mangrove land crabUcides cordatus(Decapoda: Ocypodidae)

open access: yes, 2011
Studies on mating patterns of marine crustaceans are rare, but the few studies on brachyuran crabs to date suggest that polyandrous mating is uncommon. In the present study, we used six microsatellite loci to genotype 8-16 larvae obtained from each of 10

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.

A Comparative Study of Osmoregulation in Four Fiddler Crabs (Ocypodidae:Uca) [PDF]

open access: yesZoological Science, 2002
This study aims to give an integrative description of the correlation of physiological parameters of osmoregulation and the habitats of the four common Uca species in Taiwan. Uca arcuata inhabits areas close to fresh water in the upper beach. Uca formosensis is only found in the areas near the mean high water of spring tide where there is a clear dry ...

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.

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
