American Midland Naturalist, 1956
The life histories and distribution of many animals which inhabit estuaries are well-known, but some, of direct or indirect economic importance, have been studied very little. This is true of a large number of inconspicuous or seemingly unimportant species.

Identification of new subgroup of HSP70 in Bythograeidae (hydrothermal crabs) and Xanthidae
Gene, 2007Crabs of the Bythograeidae family (Crustacea: Brachyura: Bythogreoidea) are the only endemic crab family living in hydrothermal fields. The hydrothermal environment is characterized by unique ecological parameters, such as the high temperature gradient around the hydrothermal chimney (2-350 degrees C), a fluid environment containing high levels of ...

Eocene origin of anemone-carrying behaviour in polydectine crabs (Brachyura: Xanthidae)
Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2023Abstract The crabs in the subfamily Polydectinae (family Xanthidae) have adapted a defence behaviour in which living invertebrates are used as protection from predators. The polydectine crabs carry a living invertebrate, a sea anemone or nudibranch, in each claw, which is positioned in front of the body and waved to scare off attackers ...

Toxins extracted from Australian specimens of the crab, Eriphia sebana (Xanthidae)
Toxicon, 1989Aqueous extracts of 75 specimens of the xanthid crab, Eriphia sebana, collected from coral reefs in the Capricorn Group, Great Barrier Reef, Australia, were assayed for toxicity to mice. Thirty-five extracts contained detectable toxicity. Toxicity was quantified by i.p.

Allometric Growth of the Carapace in Trapezia (Brachyura, Xanthidae)
Journal of Crustacean Biology, 1985ABSTRACT Relative growth of the carapace was studied in three species of xanthid crabs of the genus Trapezia to determine if the species can be separated by their patterns of relative growth. Adult crabs were collected in Panama and Hawaii. Carapace width (cw), carapace length (cl), and the width between the orbits, or ocular width (ow), were measured ...

The Larval Development of Heteropanope Glabra Stimpson, 1858 (Decapoda, Xanthidae) in the Laboratory
Crustaceana, 1984Les quatre stades zoe et la megalope de Heteropanope glabra Stimpson, 1858 sont decrits pour la premiere fois. Ils ont ete eleves a la temperature de 21 ± 1°C, avec une salinite de 31 ± 1°/oo. La duree minimale de tous les stades zoe etait de deux jours et la duree moyenne du stade megalope de 12,7 jours.

On two new brachyuran records (Decapoda, Dromiidae and Xanthidae) from Taiwan
Crustaceana, 2006[Two brachyuran crabs, Cryptodromia tuberculata Stimpson, 1858 (Dromiidae) and Leptodius nigromaculatus Serene, 1962 (Xanthidae) are recorded for the first time from the coasts of the main island of Taiwan. The taxonomy of C. tuberculata and L. nigromaculatus is discussed, and local distribution patterns of other species of Leptodius are compared. Deux
