Abstract Thermal tolerance limits of marine intertidal zone organisms are elevated compared to subtidal species, but are typically just slightly higher than maximal habitat temperatures. The small thermal safety margins maintained by intertidal zone organisms suggest that high thermal tolerance is associated with a physiological cost.

Biogeographic Patterns of the Galápagos Porcelain Crab Fauna
1991Twelve species of porcelain crabs are currently known from the Galapagos Islands. The basic question addressed by this chapter is: Why do these twelve species, and not any of the nearly 80 other species from the eastern Pacific, or of the more than 90 species from the Indo-West Pacific, constitute the Galapagos porcellanid fauna?

Survival and chloride ion regulation of the porcelain crab Petrolisthes armatus exposed to mercury
Marine Biology, 1974Acute toxicity bioassays conducted at various salinities demonstrated that mercury (as mercuric chloride) at low concentrations was lethal to Petrolisthes armatus. Ninety-six hour LC50 values varied from 50 to 64 parts per billion (ppb) of mercury, depending on test salinities. Lower salinities.

Mitochondrial DNA Part A, 2014
The mitochondrial genome sequence of the porcellanid crab, Petrolisthes haswelli is provided, making it the second for the family Porcellanidae and the third for the superfamily Galatheoidea. Petrolisthes haswelli has a mitogenome of 15,348 bp consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, two ribosomal subunit genes, 22 transfer RNAs and a non-coding AT-rich ...

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part D: Genomics and Proteomics, 2007
Intertidal zone organisms experience thermal stress during periods of low tide, and much work has shown that induction of heat shock proteins and ubiquitination occurs in response to this stress. However, less is known of other cellular pathways that are regulated following thermal stress in these organisms. Here, we used a functional genomics approach

General and Comparative Endocrinology, 1964
Abstract The eyestalk of the porcelain crab houses two neurosecretory cell bodies, the Z-organs, which contain a factor controlling regeneration, molting, and oocyte maturation. The role played by the Z-organs in the regulation of these phenomena has been estimated by experimental studies.

Gregarious settlement by megalopae of the porcelain crabs Petrolisthes cinctipes (Randall) and P. eriomerus Stimpson was investigated to determine possible means of attraction and postsettlement benefits. Megalopae of P. eriomerus were attracted to conspecific adults confined to chambers that prevented tactile or visual contact, suggesting that ...

Factors influencing the vertical distributions of two intertidal porcelain crab populations
2010Overlapping populations of porcelain crabs were observed on several beaches in Barkley Sound, British Columbia. The lower limit of the higher population (Petrplisthes cinctipes) and the upper limit of the lower population (Petrolisthes eriomerus) were observed to be temporally and spatially stable for three years.

Petrolisthes elongatus (Family: Porcellanidae) was introduced into Tasmania over a century ago from New Zealand, most probably via the dry and semi-dry ballast vector as well as associated with the live oyster trade. Since its initial introduction, P. elongatus has invaded new intertidal zones across the north, east, and southern coastlines of Tasmania
