Population dynamics of the non-native crab Petrolisthes armatus invading the South Atlantic Bight at densities of thousands m–2 [PDF]

open access: yesMarine Ecology Progress Series, 2007
The green porcelain crab Petrolisthes armatus recently invaded oyster reefs of the South Atlantic Bight. In 2 estuaries of coastal Georgia, USA, crab densities reached peak densities of 4000 to 11 000 crabs m -2 in some periods and locations. Densities generally were higher in the low versus the high intertidal and in the lower versus upper regions of ...

CHEMICAL MEDIATION IN CRUSTACEANS. III. ACETYL-CHOLINE AND AUTOTOMY IN PETROLISTHES ARMATUS (GIBBES)

open access: yesThe Biological Bulletin, 1939
1. A single stimulus to each of the walking legs and chelae of the anomuran, Petrolisthes armatus, was found to cause, in most animals, the autotomy of four or more of these eight appendages. The appendages least often dropped were the first, sixth, seventh, and eighth of a series, when the order of stimulation was a random one.

Insights of the life history in the porcellanid crab Petrolisthes armatus (Gibbes, 1850) (Crustacea: Anomura: Porcellanidae) from the Southwestern Atlantic coast [PDF]

open access: yesInvertebrate Reproduction & Development, 2017
AbstractPetrolisthes armatus (Gibbes, 1850) life history was evaluated based on growth and reproduction. Specimens were captured at Ubatuba (Brazil), identified, sexed and measured: carapace (CL, length; CW, width), larger cheliped propodus (PL, length; PW, width; and PH, height), and 2th and 5th abdominal somite (AW2 and AW5, width).

Reproductive performance of the marine green porcelain crab \u3ci\u3ePetrolisthes armatus\u3c/i\u3e Gibbes, 1850 in its introduced range favors further range expansion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Invasive marine crustaceans can exhibit population-level variation in reproductive traits that are consistent with a response to stressful conditions near the range edge, or alternatively, that may favor establishing new exotic populations.

Metabolism, Consumption Rates, and Scope for Growth of Porcelain Crab (Petrolisthes galathinus) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Porcelain crabs Petrolisthes galathinus (Bosc, 1802) can be found at high densities in oyster reefs. To examine effects of diet on metabolism, crabs (N = 32) were fed Artemia salina nauplii, mixed microalgae, or algal biofilm extract, or left unfed ...
