Elucidating the processes responsible for maintaining the population connectivity of marine
benthic species mediated by larval dispersal remains a fundamental question in marine …

The southern king crab, Lithodes santolla, is a well-known predator/scavenger species
during its adult phase but its feeding strategy in early stages is less studied. This information …
