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

Journal 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 Cretaceous and Eocene Callianassoidea (Thalassinidea, Decapoda) from Algarrobo, Chile [PDF]

Journal of Crustacean Biology, 2006
Abstract New decapod crustacean fossils collected from Eocene rocks of Algarrobo, Chile, have yielded a new genus and species of callianassid, Melipal chilensis. The large sample size makes it possible to recognize marked sexual dimorphism of the major cheliped and pronounced heterochely in the new taxon.

Ecological Relevance of Hemolymph Total Protein Concentration in Seven Unrelated Crustacean Species from Different Habitats Measured Predictively by a Density‐Salinity Refractometer

Journal of Marine Sciences, Volume 2011, Issue 1, 2011., 2011
In recent years, blood metabolites have been investigated as a tool for monitoring physiological condition in wild or cultured crustaceans exposed to different environmental conditions. Blood protein levels fluctuate with changes in environmental and physiological conditions and play fundamental roles in the physiology of crustaceans from O2 transport ...

Spatial oxygen heterogeneity in a Hediste diversicolor irrigated burrow [PDF]

, 2011
The heterogeneity of oxygen distribution in a Hediste diversicolor burrow environment was investigated in a laboratory experiment using a 6-mm thick tank equipped with oxygen planar optodes. The twodimensional oxygen distribution in a complete burrow was
