Effect of hypoxia and anoxia on invertebrate behaviour: ecological perspectives from species to community level [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2014
Coastal hypoxia and anoxia have become a global key stressor to marine ecosystems, with almost 500 dead zones recorded worldwide. By triggering cascading effects from the individual organism to the community- and ecosystem level, oxygen depletions ...

Aggression and food resource competition between sympatric hermit crab species. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The vertical zonation patterns of intertidal organisms have been topics of interest to marine ecologists for many years, with interspecific food competition being implicated as a contributing factor to intertidal community organization. In this study, we

The oldest dairoidid crab (Decapoda, Brachyura, Parthenopoidea) from the Eocene of Spain

open access: yesPapers in Palaeontology, Volume 9, Issue 3, May/June 2023., 2023
Abstract Eubrachyurans, or ‘higher’ true crabs, are the most speciose group of decapod crustaceans and have a rich fossil record extending into the Early Cretaceous. However, most extant families are first found in the fossil record in the Palaeogene, and particularly in the Eocene.
