Insights Into Spatial Orientation and Cognition in Tarantulas (Araneae: Theraphosidae) Under Natural Conditions, With Notes on Possible Ontogenetic Niche Shifts. [PDF]
Cognitive studies on spiders have largely ignored mygalomorphs, such as tarantulas, and almost completely lack field‐based observations. We present nine observations of arboreal and fossorial New World tarantulas, including a blind cave‐dwelling species, providing evidence for possible experience‐based navigation and spatial learning during foraging ...

Exoskeletal deformities in Palaemonidae: Are they a threat to survival? [PDF]
Shrimps of the Palaemon genus have been affected for over 15 years by a problem of exoskeletal deformities, particularly in the Gironde estuary (France). Given the large numbers of individuals affected, this study focus on a better description of the phenomenon to estimate its impact on shrimps.

Fecundity and fertility of Macrobrachium amazonicum (Crustacea, Palaemonidae) [PDF]
In Brazil, studies with native freshwater prawn species were discontinued due to great importance of Macrobrachium rosenbergii. Therefore, it is necessary to continue investigations about our species, in order to develop technology adequate to our reality and in a future allow prawn farmers to culture other species.

Reproductive cycle of Macrobrachium amazonicum females (Crustacea, Palaemonidae) [PDF]
Macrobrachium amazonicum is considered a favorite Brazilian species of freshwater prawn for cultivation as a result of its quick development and because it is easy to maintain in captivity. The aim of this work is to describe the sexual cycle stages and determine maturation age of the female M. amazonicum, which was collected monthly from June, 2002 to
