A comparison of the cheliped's weight in two species of the genus Callinectes was accomplished. The species C. danae e C. ornatus were collected by two otter trawl in Ubatuba bay (23 degrees 26' S and 45 degrees 02' W). ...

Some individuals of Cancer johngarthi caught with traps off the Baja California Peninsula displayed abnormal chelipeds, generally in the dactylopodite, with two or three quasi-dactyli of different sizes that could restrain ...

A comparison of the cheliped's weight in two species of the genus Callinectes was accomplished. The species C. danae e C. ornatus were collected by two otter trawl in Ubatuba bay (23 degrees 26' S and 45 degrees 02' W). ...

Some decapod species have intraspecific morphological variations that result in distinct adult morphotypes that influence the population structure, social dominance, and reproduction of the population. Here we investigated ...

Cheliped loss through autotomy is a common reflexive response in decapod crustaceans. Cheliped loss has direct and indirect effects on feeding behavior which can affect population dynamics and the role of species in the ...
