The effects of a competitor on the foraging behaviour of the shore crab Carcinus maenas. [PDF]
Optimal Diet Theory suggests that individuals make foraging decisions that maximise net energy intake. Many studies provide qualitative support for this, but factors such as digestive constraints, learning, predation-risk and competition can influence ...

A Feeding‐Ecology‐Based Approach to Evaluating Nursery Potential of Estuaries for Black Rockfish
Abstract Previous work suggests that Oregon estuaries function as nursery habitat and may play an important role in settlement of Black Rockfish Sebastes melanops. No research, however, has been conducted on juvenile Black Rockfish feeding ecology in estuarine habitats, which is necessary to evaluate habitat use and quality.

Kelp Forest Zooplankton, Forage Fishes, and Juvenile Salmonids of the Northeast Pacific Nearshore
Abstract Kelp forests are an important ecological component of temperate coastal systems that are sensitive to anthropogenic disturbance and are in decline in many locations globally. In the northeastern Pacific Ocean off the coast of Washington, USA, bull kelp Nereocystis luetkeana forests are seasonally used by juvenile salmonids and forage fishes ...

Shell occupation and microhabitat use by hermit crabs (Decapoda: Anomura) on Fortaleza beach, Ubatuba, São Paulo [PDF]
Most species of hermit crabs use the empty shells of gastropods as mobile shelters. The variation of shell availability in different microhabitats can reduce competitive interactions between sympatric species, favoring their coexistence.

Updating changes in the Iberian decapod crustacean fauna (excluding crabs) after 50 years
An annotated checklist of the marine decapod crustaceans (excluding crabs) of the Iberian Peninsula has been compiled 50 years after the publication of “Crustáceos decápodos ibéricos” by Zariquiey Álvarez (1968).

LARVAL DEVELOPMENT OF PARAPAGURODES CONSTANS (DECAPODA: ANOMURA: PAGURIDAE) REARED IN THE LABORATORY [PDF]
Abstract The complete larval development of Parapagurodes constans is described, based on laboratory rearing. The species has four zoeal stages plus the megalopa. Each stage is described and illustrated, and detailed comparisons are made with other pagurid larvae in closely related species of Parapagurodes and other pagurid genera.
