Differential effects of water loss and temperature increase on the physiology of fiddler crabs from distinct habitats
(2018-04-01)
Temperature is one of the main environmental constraints to organism distribution, affecting physiology and survival. Organisms that inhabit the intertidal zone are exposed to temperature variation and, with climate change, ...
Construction and structure of the semidomes of the fiddler crab Minuca rapax (Brachyura: Ocypodidae) in southern Brazil
(2018-03-24)
Fiddler crabs construct and maintain above-ground sedimentary structures that vary in shape and function. We describe for the first time the behavior of the construction of semidomes, a type of sedimentary structure, in ...
Differential effects of water loss and temperature increase in the physiology of fiddler crabs from distinct habitats
(Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp), 2017-08-23)
A temperatura é uma das principais restrições ambientais à distribuição dos organismos, afetando a fisiologia e sobrevivência. Organismos que habitam a zona do entremarés estão constantemente expostos à variação da temperatura ...
Caracterização da assembleia de caranguejos chama-maré (Brachyura: Ocypodidae: Gelasiminae), nas diferentes fitofisionomias do manguezal
(Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp), 2019-03-12)
Os Gelasiminae, subfamília à qual pertencem os popularmente conhecidos caranguejos chama-marés, tem um importante papel como “engenheiros” do ecossistema manguezal, tendo sua distribuição espacial limitada por fatores ...
Combined effects of temperature and copper on oxygen consumption and antioxidant responses in the mudflat fiddler crab Minuca rapax (Brachyura, Ocypodidae)
(Elsevier B.V., 2019-09-01)
This study investigates the combined effects of waterborne copper exposure and acute temperature change on oxygen consumption and the oxidative stress biomarkers, glutathione S-transferase (GST) and glutathione peroxidase ...
Contrasting patterns of clinal genetic diversity and potential colonization pathways in two species of western atlantic fiddler crabs
(2016-11-01)
Fiddler crabs (Brachyura, Ocypodidae), like many other marine organisms, disperse via planktonic larvae. A lengthy pelagic larval duration is generally assumed to result in genetic connectivity even among distant populations. ...
Size-at-age or structure shift: Which hypothesis explains smaller body size of the fiddler crab Leptuca uruguayensis in northern populations?
(2021-06-05)
The mean body size decrease is known as the third most important global consequence of climate change to wild life. Rising temperatures may lead to decreased mean body size of organisms and change their ecological role in ...
