Population dynamics of the pea crab Austinixa aidae (Brachyura, Pinnotheridae): a symbiotic of the ghost shrimp Callichirus major (Thalassinidea, Callianassidae) from the southwestern Atlantic [PDF]

open access: yesIheringia: Série Zoologia, 2011
The Pinnotheridae family is one of the most diverse and complex groups of brachyuran crabs, many of them symbionts of a wide variety of invertebrates. The present study describes the population dynamics of the pea crab Austinixa aidae (Righi, 1967), a ...

Functional morphology of cirri in the barnacle Amphibalanus improvisus (crustacea: Balanidae)

open access: yesJournal of Morphology, Volume 283, Issue 11, Page 1439-1450, November 2022., 2022
First 3D analysis of skeleton‐muscular system of cirri. Serrate setae of cirri IV–VI likely create “zipper‐like effect.” First description of the second flexor muscle in cirrus II. Grooming and food transfer supported by microstructure. Abstract Barnacles rely heavily on their mobile cirri for food capture because of the sessile lifestyle.

New Eocene Decapods (Thalassinidea and Brachyura) from Southern California [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Crustacean Biology, 2002
Abstract A new decapod fauna has been recovered from Eocene rocks of San Diego County, California. Decapod faunas of Eocene age have been rare from California, although they are well described from the northern Pacific coast. Three new species, including Neocallichirus rhinos, Ctenocheles secretanae, and Minohellenus inexpressus, and two new genera and

Biffarius pacificus, a new species of the Callianassidae (Crustacea: Decapoda: Thalassinidea) from northern Chile

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2003
Nine specimens of Biffarius pacificus sp. nov. were collected with a "van Veen" grab at two sublittoral stations off the northern coast of Chile (Iquique, 22º12´S; Patache, 22º45´S) at depths ranging from 17 to 30 m. This is the first record of the genus

A new species of ghost shrimp (Decapoda, Thalassinidea, Callianassidae) from the Late Cretaceous (Cenomanian) of Agadir (W Morocco)

open access: yesNatural History Sciences, 2011
We report Neocallichirus agadirensis n. sp. (Decapoda, Thalassinidea, Callianassidae) from the Late Cretaceous (Cenomanian) of Agadir (W Morocco). This species has been described based upon four specimens that preserve ischium, merus, carpus, propodus ...

Distribution and Sediment Selection by the Mud Shrimp Upogebia noronhensis (Crustacea: Thalassinidea) and the Potential Effects on the Associated Macroinfaunal Community

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
Burrowers such as thalassinideans remobilize sediment in benthic ecosystems, altering granulometry, enhancing organic matter cycling and oxygenation. We characterized the distribution of the mud shrimp Upogebia noronhensis and the associated macroinfauna

GLOBAL DIVERSITY IN THE THALASSINIDEA (DECAPODA) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Crustacean Biology, 2000
Among the 516 taxa of thalassinideans so far described, there is a strong latitudinal increase in species numbers from high latitudes towards the equator in both hemispheres. Numbers of species in the northern hemisphere are similar to those in the southern one.
