The complete mitochondrial genome of the swimming crab Charybdis natator (Herbst) (Decapoda: Brachyura: Portunidae) and its phylogeny

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2017
The complete mitochondrial genome of Charybdis natator (family Portunidae) was obtained using Illumina and Sanger dideoxy sequencing. This genome was a typically circular molecule with a length of 15,664 bp and encoded 13 protein-coding genes, 22 ...

Long‐term recovery and food web response of benthic macrofauna following cessation of bottom trawling in a marine protected area

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2025.
The study is unique in covering how the benthic community has responded to a long‐term fishing closure in one of Europe's largest strictly marine protected areas. We find the recovery of species and strong links to the food web in the response to protection.

Fishers' interactions with endangered “rhinorays” in Karimunjawa National Park, and factors influencing willingness to engage in pro‐conservation behavior

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2025.
Abstract The “rhinorays” (giant guitarfish‐Glaucostegidae and wedgefish‐Rhinidae) are a critically endangered group of “shark‐like rays,” which have experienced steep global population declines in the past decade due to overfishing. Their slow life histories and high market value increase the risk of trade‐driven extinction and lead to trade‐offs ...

Biological associations of color variation in the Indo-Pacific swimming crab Charybdis hellerii

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2015
A marine biological invasion is a natural process accelerated by human activities, and the crab Charybdis hellerii is an example of a globally widespread invasive species. This study evaluated color variation in C.

Defensive Behaviour in Intertidal Crabs

Ethology, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2025.
Mangrove swimming crab showing defensive behaviour by raising its chelae; ruler and grey card are also shown. ABSTRACT Despite a long roster of prey defences against predators now documented by biologists, any given species utilises only some of them, and we have few a priori predictions as to if, when or where they will be employed.

The Mitochondrial Genome Reveals Phylogenetic Relationships and Gene Rearrangement in Brachyura

Journal of Zoological Systematics and Evolutionary Research, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Brachyura represents the focus of species diversity within Decapoda. However, this diversity increases the difficulty of species identification and obscures the natural phylogenetic relationships. Mitogenomes, with their rich phylogenetic signal and evolutionary informatics, provide critical insights into brachyuran systematics.

KEKAYAAN JENIS PORTUNIDAE DI SISI SHIPPING LINE SELAT MADURA

Berkala Penelitian Hayati, 2006
A monitoring activity for the existence of portunid crabs in the narrowest part of Madura Strait has been done from 2001 to 2004. Crabs have been collected in June or July each year in day time during spring tide. Crab collection was carried out in four sampling station (I to IV) using 0,5 cm trawl net for 10 minutes netting in each time.

New records of the invasive marine crab "Charybdis hellerii" (Crustacea, Brachyura) in Cuba

Revista de Investigaciones Marinas
The brachyuran crab Charybdis hellerii is originally from the Pacific; nevertheless, the species has been introduced to tropical waters globally. Its initial sighting in the Western Atlantic was documented in 1990 based on specimens collected in Cuba in
