Effect of feeding technique and prey characteristics on the feeding rate of Olrog's Gulls (Larus atlanticus)
(Waterbird Society, 2013-12)
The Olrog's Gull (Larus atlanticus) is a species that feeds almost exclusively on intertidal crabs. The influence of feeding technique, food source, and habitat characteristics on the feeding rate of breeding individuals ...
Air-exposure behavior: a restricted or a common conduct among intertidal hermit crabs?
(2020)
A new behavior related to shell care was recently reported for the intertidal hermit crab Clibanarius erythropus (Latreille, 1818) in the Gulf of Cádiz (southwestern Europe). It also has been observed in other species of ...
Differential coloration patterns in the intertidal crab Neohelice (=Chasmagnathus) granulata
(Cambridge University Press, 2010-12)
Many crustaceans with spatial segregation may present differential body coloration depending on the habitat they inhabit. Since crustaceans are unable to synthesize carotenoids, individuals must acquire them from their ...
Effect of food addition on the reproductive intensity and timing of both sexes of an intertidal crab
(Inter-Research, 2010-02)
Males and females of most animals time reproduction and synchronize their reproductive activity to maximize lifetime fitness. When food is abundant, however, the 2 sexes may time investments in reproduction differently due ...
Shell-size selection by intertidal sympatric hermit crabs
(SpringerNew YorkEUA, 2004)
Discovering divergence in the thermal physiology of intertidal crabs along latitudinal gradients using an integrated approach with machine learning.
In intertidal marine crustaceans, phenotypic variation in physiological and life-history traits is pervasive along latitudinal clines. However, organisms have complex phenotypes, and their traits do not vary independently ...
Cannibalism and inter-specific predation in early stages of intertidal crab species that compete for refuges
