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

open access: yesGulf of Mexico Science, 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. Oxygen consumption, ammonia excretion, food consumption rate, and absorption efficiency were determined ...

The aggregation effect of offshore mussel farming on pelagic fishes

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 4, Issue 2, April 2024.
As well as adding hard structure to the seabed, mussel aquaculture adds rope droppers and anchor lines to the water column, where such structure would otherwise be absent. This paper aims to monitor the effects of mussel headlines on the pelagic fish community over time, as well as to investigate whether there is an interaction between the age of ...

Causes and Consequences of Thermal Tolerance Limits in Rocky Intertidal Porcelain Crabs, Genus Petrolisthes [PDF]

open access: yesIntegrative and Comparative Biology, 2002
Vertical zonation of intertidal organisms, from the shallow subtidal to the supralittoral zones, is a ubiquitous feature of temperate and tropical rocky shores. Organisms that live higher on the shore experience larger daily and seasonal fluctuations in microhabitat conditions, due to their greater exposure to terrestrial conditions during emersion ...

Projected ocean temperatures impair key proteins used in vision of octopus hatchlings

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 30, Issue 4, April 2024.
The early life stages of species are especially sensitive to environmental stressors including the current human‐driven rise in global temperatures. As proteins play crucial roles in regulating normal physiological functions, analysing changes in protein abundance in response to thermal stress can offer valuable insights into a species' ability to ...

Substrate preference by the porcelain crab Pachycheles monilifer (Crustacea, Anomura): the bryozoan Schizoporella errata or the polychaete Phragmatopoma caudata?

open access: yesNauplius, 2014
Differences on reproductive performance between two sampling points of the porcelain crab Pachycheles monilifer from Ubatuba (São Paulo, Brazil), one from Itaguá Beach (living on Schizoporella errata) and the other from Grande Beach (living on ...

Species composition and ecological relationships of icthyofauna on artificial Liberty Ship reefs off Port Aransas, Texas : final report submitted to the Texas Coastal and Marine Council in partial fulfillment of IAC (78-79)-0869 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1978
Submitted August 1978Five cruises were made to the Liberty Ship Reef off Port Aransas, Texas in June and July 1978. Collecting procedures, which included sampling by fish trap, hook and line, and long line, were relatively unchanged from previous trips ...

Impact of anthropogenic ocean acidification on thermal tolerance of the spider crab Hyas araneus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Future scenarios for the oceans project combined developments of CO2 accumulation and global warming and their impact on marine ecosystems. The synergistic impact of both factors was addressed by studying the effect of elevated CO2 concentrations on ...

Gene expression profiling in gills of the great spider crab Hyas araneus in response to ocean acidification and warming [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background: Hypercapnia and elevated temperatures resulting from climate change may have adverse consequences for many marine organisms. While diverse physiological and ecological effects have been identified, changes in those molecular mechanisms ...
