Spermatophore transfer in the hermit crab Clibanarius vittatus (Crustacea, Anomura, Diogenidae).
Although mating has been described in several hermit crab species, the mechanics of spermatophore transfer have not previously been demonstrated. Evidence from pleopod and gonopore morphology, video observations, and inseminated females indicates that in Clibanarius vittatus the male applies a spermatophoric mass directly onto the female via the gonopores rather than with modified pleopods 1-2 ...
متن کاملA new species of the hermit crab genus Paguristes Dana, 1851 (Crustacea: Decapoda: Anomura: Diogenidae) from southwestern India.
A new species of the hermit crab genus Paguristes Dana, 1851 (Diogenidae), P. luculentus, is described and illustrated on the basis of three male specimens collected from off the Kerala State, southwestern India. It belongs to the species group characterized by the posterior lobes of the telson unarmed on the terminal margins, but the characteristic armature of the chelae and carpi of the cheli...
متن کاملA new species of the hermit crab genus Diogenes (Crustacea: Decapoda: Anomura: Diogenidae) from southern India.
A new species of the hermit crab genus Diogenes Dana, 1851 (Diogenidae), D. canaliculatus, is described and illustrated on the basis of material from off the Kerala State, southern India. It is referred to the D. edwardsii (De Haan, 1849) species group, and compared with D. bicristimanus Alcock, 1905, D. fasciatus Rahayu & Forest, 1995, D. laevicarpus Rahayu, 1996 and D. moosai Rahayu & Forest,...
متن کاملMorphometric Relationships Between the Hermit Crab Isocheles sawayai (Forest & Saint Laurent) (Crustacea Anomura Diogenidae) and its Shell from Southern Brazil
A study on morphometric relationships between the hermit crab Isocheles sawayai and its shell in a population from Paraná-Santa Catarina States coast was carried out. Hermit crabs from the by-catch of shrimp fishing (4-15m depth) were collected. Cephalothoracic shield length (CL) and width (CW) from hermit crabs and total length (SL), aperture length (AL) and weight (SW) from shells were taken....
متن کاملShell occupation by the endemic western Atlantic hermit crab Isocheles sawayai (Diogenidae) from Caraguatatuba, Brazil.
The aim of this study was to characterize the pattern of shell occupation by the hermit crab Isocheles sawayai Forest and Saint-Laurent, 1968, from the Caraguatatuba region. The percentage of shell types that were occupied and the morphometric relationships between hermit crabs and occupied shells were analyzed from systematized collections that were conducted monthly from July 2001 to June 200...
