Feeding preference of the South American endemic anomuran Aegla platensis (Decapoda, Anomura, Aeglidae)
(Springer, 2012-04-01)
In order to determine the feeding preference of Aegla platensis in streams and the importance of microorganisms in its detritivore diet, we carried out two experiments designed to evaluate the food preferences of A. platensis ...
Shape and size variations of Aegla uruguayana (Anomura, Aeglidae) under laboratory conditions: A geometric morphometric approach to the growthVariaciones de forma y tamaño de Aegla uruguayana (Anomura, Aeglidae): Una aproximación desde la morfometría geométrica al crecimiento
(Fundaçao Zoobotanica Rio Grande Sul, 2015-03)
Crustacean growth studies typically use modal analysis rather than focusing on the growth of individuals. In the present work, we use geometric morphometrics to determine how organism shape and size varies during the life ...
Heteroquely, laterality, maturity body size and shape variation of males and females of the endemic South American anomuran Aegla quilombola Moraes, Tavares & Bueno, 2017
(2020-01-01)
Aegla quilombola: is an anomuran crab endemic to São Paulo State, Brazil. The present manuscript aims to provide information about sexual dimorphism using geometric morphometrics, as well as information about heterochely, ...
Reproductive ecology and size of sexual maturity in the anomuran crab Aegla parana (Decapoda: Aeglidae)
(Crustacean Soc, 2013-05-01)
In Southern Brazil, Aegla parana Schmitt, 1942 is characterized by a broad distribution throughout the Iguacu River basin, particularly between the southern state of Parana and the northern state of Santa Catarina, ...
Field evaluation of oxygen consumption by two freshwater decapod morphotypes (Trichodactylidae and Aeglidae); the effect of different times of the day, body weight and sex
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2016-07)
Abstract: We report an analysis of the effect of two different times of day (noon and dusk), body weight and sex on the oxygen consumption rate (OCR) of the freshwater crabs Trichodactylus kensleyi (Trichodactylidae), Aegla ...
ALLOMETRIC GROWTH, SEXUAL MATURITY, AND ADULT MALE CHELAE DIMORPHISM IN AEGLA FRANCA (DECAPODA: ANOMURA: AEGLIDAE)
(CRUSTACEAN SOC, 2009)
Allometric growth analysis on chelac dimensions vs. carapace length (CL) was employed to estimate average size at the onset of morphometric maturity (= puberty molt) and sexual dimorphism regarding the pair of chelae in ...
REPRODUCTIVE BIOLOGY IN FEMALES OF AEGLA STRINATII (DECAPODA: ANOMURA: AEGLIDAE)
(CRUSTACEAN SOC, 2010)
Females of Aegla strinatii (n = 466) were sampled monthly (September 2003 to September 2005) by means of sieves and traps from Rio das Ostras (24 degrees 38'16.2 '' S; 48 degrees 24'05.2 '' W), at Jacupiranga State Park, ...
REPRODUCTIVE BIOLOGY AND FUNCTIONAL MATURITY IN FEMALES OF AEGLA FRANCA (DECAPODA: ANOMURA: AEGLIDAE)
(CRUSTACEAN SOC, 2008)
We describe the reproductive period. fecundity, and average size at the onset of functional maturity of female Aegla franca, the northernmost distributed aeglid species. The reproductive period is markedly seasonal and ...
Population biology of the freshwater anomuran Aegla longirostri (Aeglidae) from South Brazilian streams
(Crustacean Soc, 2005-08-01)
This paper describes a population of Aegla longirostri from Ibicui-Mirim River, Itaara, Rio Grande do Sul State, Brazil, evaluating the size at onset of sexual maturity, relative growth, mean size, size-frequency distribution, ...
