Survival and chloride ion regulation of the porcelain crab Petrolisthes armatus exposed to mercury

open access: yesMarine Biology, 1974
p. 213-217.Acute toxicity bioassays conducted at various salinities demonstrated that mercury (as mercuric chloride) at low concentrations was lethal to Petrolisthes armatus.

Invertebrate Reproduction and Development
Our study investigated the size at the onset of morphological sexual maturity, sexual size dimorphism, and relative growth in the green porcelain crab Petrolisthes armatus from a population in Northeastern Brazil. Specimens were collected monthly between

Does predator-driven, biotic resistance limit the northward spread of the non-native green porcelain crab, Petrolisthes armatus?

Biological Invasions, 2018
Biotic resistance by native predators can limit the geographic range and abundance of non-native species following introduction into an ecosystem. Here we tested the hypothesis that the strength of predation pressure varies with latitude and limits the abundance and northward expansion of the non-native green porcelain crab, Petrolisthes armatus, whose

Spacing and movement in the green porcelain crab Petrolisthes armatus: evidence for male competition and mate guarding

Marine and Freshwater Behaviour and Physiology, 2017
AbstractThe green porcelain crab, Petrolisthes armatus, is a common invasive species on inter-tidal oyster reefs in the South Atlantic Bight whose behavior is largely unknown. We assessed the effects of the presence of opposite-sex conspecifics on adult crab spacing at a low density to infer potential mate acquisition behaviors. Adult crabs held in all-

Spatial and Temporal Associations Between Native Crabs and the Invading Green Porcelain Crab, Petrolisthes armatus, Throughout Its Northernmost Invaded Range

Estuaries and Coasts, 2018
Increasing ocean temperatures have led to poleward range expansions of many marine organisms. The green porcelain crab, Petrolisthes armatus, was first reported on intertidal oyster reefs near Charleston, South Carolina in the mid-1990s, an expansion from its tropical to sub-tropical native range. In order to investigate the relative abundances of this

Recruitment of the Crabs Eurypanopeus depressus, Rhithropanopeus harrisii, and Petrolisthes armatus to Oyster Reefs: the Influence of Freshwater Inflow

Estuaries and Coasts, 2013
Oyster reefs provide structural habitat for resident crabs and fishes, most of which have planktonic larvae that are dependent upon transport/retention processes for successful settlement. High rates of freshwater inflow have the potential to disrupt these processes, creating spatial gaps between larval distribution and settlement habitat.

Population relationships between the parasiteAporobopyrus curtatus(Richardson, 1904) (Isopoda: Bopyridae) and one of its porcelain crab hostsPetrolisthes armatus(Gibbes, 1850) (Decapoda: Porcellanidae) from Farol Island, southern Brazil

Journal of Natural History, 1998
The following aspects of population relationships between the bopyrid isopod Aporobopyrus curtatus and the porcelain crab Petrolisthes armatus were analysed: size-specific prevalence, parasitic intensity, frequency distribution of the nine groups of parasite stage or sex infesting hosts.

Petrolisthes Armatus: a Redescription of Larval Development Under Laboratory Conditions (Decapoda, Porcellanidae) 1)

Crustaceana, 1970
[Die Entwicklung von Petrolisthes armatus wird auf Grund von Laboratoriumskulturen beschrieben und vier Stadien unterschieden: Pra-Zoea, Zoea I, Zoea II und Megalopa-Stadium. Die Larven wurden in zwei Serien aufgezogen. Serie A wurde mit Artemia-Nauplien gefuttert, Serie B erhielt kein Futter.
