Novel gene re-arrangement in the mitochondrial genome of Pisidia serratifrons (Anomura, Galatheoidea, Porcellanidae) and phylogenetic associations in Anomura [PDF]
To improve the taxonomy and systematics of Porcellanidae within the evolution of Anomura, we describe the complete mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) sequence of Pisidia serratifrons, which is 15,344 bp in size, contains the entire set of 37 genes and ...

Integrative Phylogenetic and Morphological Analyses Reveal Two New Species of Porcellanid Crabs and Resurrect <i>Porcellanella picta</i> Stimpson, 1858 (Decapoda: Porcellanidae). [PDF]
This 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.).

On a new commensal species of Aliaporcellana from the western Pacific (Crustacea, Decapoda, Porcellanidae) [PDF]
Aliaporcellana spongicola sp. n. from the Philippines and Indonesia is described. The new species has been frequently photographed by divers because of its striking coloration, but has not been described yet. Aliaporcellana spongicola sp. n. is in fact a

Molecular phylogeny of porcelain crabs (Porcellanidae: Petrolisthes and allies) from the south eastern Pacific: the genera Allopetrolisthes and Liopetrolisthes are not natural entities [PDF]
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

Macrocrustaceans associated with reefs of Phragmatopoma caudata Krøyer in Mörch, 1863 (Polychaeta: Sabellariidae) and rocky shore in the Northeastern Brazil [PDF]
Ecosystem engineering species create, modify, and/or maintain the characteristics of the environment. The polychaete Phragmatopoma caudata builds large sand reefs in the intertidal region of the Brazilian coast with high structural complexity, favoring ...
