Accuracy and standardization of brachyuran larval descriptions
Summary There is a need for improvement and standardization in larval descriptions for them to become useful not only for identification purposes but also in comparative and phylogenetic studies.…

Cost-effective monitoring of organic enrichment resulting from salmon mariculture
Two methods of environmental monitoring proposed for the salmon mariculture industry are compared and contrasted on the basis of scientific and cost-effectiveness criteria: a technique based on…

Structure, function, and development of setae on gill-grooming appendages and associated mouthparts of pinnotherid crabs (Decapoda: Brachyura)
TLDR
Gills of pinnotherid crabs are groomed by setose epipodite extensions of maxilliped mouthparts by plumodenticulate grooming setae similar to those found in other Crustacea, andStructurally more complex setae with anchor-shaped outgrowths were found in 7 of 19 investigated genera.

Pockmarks influence benthic communities in Passamaquoddy Bay, Bay of Fundy, Canada
TLDR
Circumstantial evidence supports the hypothesis that upper Habitat A pockmarks are at various stages in a pre-equilibrium succession, and two different patterns of benthic macro-infaunal community structure were related to upper and lower areas within Habitat B.

Larval Stages Of Paradasygyius Depressus (Bell, 1835) (Crustacea : Decapoda : Brachyura : Majidae) And A Phylogenetic Analysis For 21 Genera Of Majidae
Large-Scale Spatial Distribution Patterns of Echinoderms in Nearshore Rocky Habitats
TLDR
The results indicate that nearshore echinoderm assemblages appear to be shaped by a network of environmental and ecological processes, and by the differing responses of various echinaderm taxa, making generalizations about the patterns of nearshore rocky habitat echinoderms difficult.

Patterns of Spatial Variation of Assemblages Associated with Intertidal Rocky Shores: A Global Perspective
TLDR
The importance of generating biological global databases for the use in large-scale diversity comparisons of rocky intertidal assemblages to stimulate continued sampling and analyses is shown, suggesting that neither neutral models nor models based solely on environmental variables sufficiently explain spatial variation of theseassemblages at a global scale.

MORPHOLOGY AND CLASSIFICATION OF DECAPOD CRUSTACEAN LARVAL SETAE : A SCANNING ELECTRON MICROSCOPE STUDY OF DISSODACTYLUS CRINITICHELIS MOREIRA , 1901 ( BRACHYURA : PINNOTHERIDAE )
TLDR
Scanning electron microscopy showed that setae are morphologically more complex and diverse than previously thought, and an attempt has been made to accommodate this diversity within a unified system of classification by combining two previously existing schemes, which required some minor modifications.
Midwater cephalopods in the western North Atlantic Ocean off Nova Scotia
The midwater fauna off Nova Scotia was sampled with large pelagic trawls over bottom depths of 169-4800 m on seven cruises between August 1986 and June 1989. We identified, counted, and measured…
ON THE LARVAL STAGES OF MACROCOELOMA DIPLACANTHUM (DECAPODA: BRACHYURA: MAJIDAE), AND A REVIEW OF MITHRACINE PHYLOGENETIC ASPECTS
TLDR
Larval development of Macrocoeloma diplacanthum (Stimpson) consists of two zoeal stages, followed by the megalopa, which is remarkably consistent with Floridian specimens previously described.
