Interactions Between Temperature Variability and Reproductive Physiology Across Traits in an Intertidal Crab [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2022 Thermal extremes alter population processes, which can result in part from temperature-induced movement at different spatial and temporal scales. Thermal thresholds for animal movement likely change based on underlying thermal physiology and life-history

Molecular phylogeny of porcelain crabs (Porcellanidae: Petrolisthes and allies) from the south eastern Pacific: the genera Allopetrolisthes and Liopetrolisthes are not natural entities [PDF]
PeerJ, 2016 Porcelain crabs from the closely related genera Petrolisthes, Liopetrolisthes, and Allopetrolisthes are known for their diversity of lifestyles, habitats, and coloration. The evolutionary relationships among the species belonging to these three genera is

Host Range of the Mikrocytid Parasite Paramikrocytos canceri in Decapod Crustaceans [PDF]
Pathogens, 2019 Mikrocytids are a widespread but rather neglected group of parasites of aquatic invertebrates. One such parasite is Paramikrocytos canceri—discovered to infect the antennal gland of the juvenile edible crab, Cancer pagurus, taken from several ...

Integrative Phylogenetic and Morphological Analyses Reveal Two New Species of Porcellanid Crabs and Resurrect <i>Porcellanella picta</i> Stimpson, 1858 (Decapoda: Porcellanidae). [PDF]
Ecol EvolThis study uses integrative phylogenetic and morphological analyses to clarify the taxonomy of Porcellanella crabs, revealing four distinct species. The authors resurrect Porcellanella picta as a valid species and describe two new species from Australia (P. brevidentata n. sp. and P. longiloba n. sp.).

Molecular Evaluation of the Mating Dynamics of Snow Crab (Chionoecetes opilio) in the Eastern Bering Sea. [PDF]
Ecol EvolMost snow crab females in the eastern Bering Sea had stored sperm from one or two mates. While single paternity was common, some females had clutches sired by two males. Female snow crab primarily mated with male snow crab, with few instances of interspecies mating.

No compromise between metabolism and behavior of decorator crabs in reduced pH conditions. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2019 Many marine calcifiers experience metabolic costs when exposed to experimental ocean acidification conditions, potentially limiting the energy available to support regulatory processes and behaviors. Decorator crabs expend energy on decoration camouflage

Historical Demography and Species Distribution Models Shed Light on Speciation in Primates of Northeast India. [PDF]
Ecol EvolNortheast India's diverse geography has created numerous niches, promoting species evolution, with past climate change playing a significant role in primate speciation. Using climate modeling and genomic data, we studied the demographic history of nine primate species, revealing that climate fluctuations during the Pliocene and Pleistocene influenced ...
