Phototaxis in Two Shallow-Water Zeuxo Species (Crustacea: Tanaidacea)
Different crustacean species can differ in their response to light. In Tanaidacea, a small group of aquatic, benthic crustaceans, previous studies suggested that several species may be positively phototactic based on their attraction to nocturnal light ...

Tanaella quintanai, a new deep-water tanaellid (Crustacea: Peracarida: Tanaidacea) from the Colombian Caribbean Coast, with a key to the species of the genus Tanaella Norman & Stebbing, 1886 [PDF]
A new tanaidacean, Tanaella quintanai sp. nov., is described based on specimens collected from depths of 1,598 to 2,853 m during 2014–2015. The new species appears to be most closely related to the western Atlantic species, T. kroyeri and T.

A new deep-sea crustacean family of Tanaidacea is established from Aotearoa New Zealand and Southeast Australia based principally on morphology [PDF]
We establish a new deep-sea tanaidacean family, Arthruridae n. fam., separated from the family Tanaellidae Larsen and Wilson, 2002, and based on a morphology-based phylogenetic analysis.

Protogynous hermaphroditism in Crustacea: a new example from Tanaidacea
Hermaphroditism has been widely reported in the Crustacea, but protogyny, in which females change to males, is apparently rare and restricted to the peracarid orders Isopoda and Tanaidacea.

A new genus and species of Sphyrapodidae (Crustacea, Peracarida, Tanaidacea) from the southern coast of the South Korea [PDF]
Wandogarida canalicula gen. n et sp. n. (Tanaidacea, Sphyrapodidae) is described from the southern coast of Korea (NW Pacific). The genus is included in the subfamily Sphyrapodinae Guţu, 1980 by having a mandible lacking a palp.

Marsupial brood care in Cretaceous tanaidaceans [PDF]
Parental care in animal evolution has long fascinated biologists, but tracing this complex of behavioural repertoires is challenging, as these transitory states often leave no corporeal traces as fossils.

Genetic divergence of tanaidaceans (Crustacea: Peracarida) with low dispersal ability
In this study, the phylogeographic patterns of nuclear, ribosomal and mtDNA gene fragments of five tanaidacean species (Zeuxo, Tanaidae) from the Atlantic, Pacific and Mediterranean Sea were investigated. We aimed to interpret results in the framework of
