Phylogeography of Petrolisthes armatus, an invasive species with low dispersal ability [PDF]
Theoretically, species with high population structure are likely to expand their range, because marginal populations are free to adapt to local conditions; however, meta-analyses have found a negative relation between structure and invasiveness. The crab

Abundance and instantaneous transport of Petrolisthes armatus (Gibbes, 1850) planktonic larvae in the Catuama inlet, Northeast Brazil [PDF]
The influence of tidal and diel changes on the exchange of Petrolisthes armatus planktonic larvae was studied at the Catuama inlet, which represents an intermediate system of marine and estuarine environments in the Northeast Brazil.

Two Decapod Crustaceans, <i>Panopeus herbstii</i> and <i>Petrolisthes armatus</i>, Stabilize Their Gaze Using Achromatic Visual Cues, but Not the Angle of Linearly Polarized Light. [PDF]
Synopsis Gaze stabilization is important to animals because it allows them to visually differentiate between their own motion relative to their environment and the motion of objects within their environment.

A non-native prey mediates the effects of a shared predator on an ecosystem service. [PDF]
Non-native species can alter ecosystem functions performed by native species often by displacing influential native species. However, little is known about how ecosystem functions may be modified by trait-mediated indirect effects of non-native species ...

'Caribbean Creep' chills out: climate change and marine invasive species. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: New marine invasions have been recorded in increasing numbers along the world's coasts due in part to the warming of the oceans and the ability of many invasive marine species to tolerate a broader thermal range than native species.
