For anyone with interests in a group of organisms as large and diverse as the Crustacea, it is
difficult to grasp the enormity of the entire taxon at one time. Those who work on crustaceans …

The use of spermatozoal characters in elucidating animal phylogeny (spermiocladistics) has
been successfully applied in the decapod crustaceans. Most of the studies investigating …

Comparative ultrastructure of majoid spermatozoa belonging to 23 species, in 19 genera
and five families, is considered, with new data on S chizophrys aspera; S. rufescens (M …

Phylogenetic relationships of gecarcinucoid freshwater crabs were investigated, based on
morphology of the male second gonopod. In addition, a comparison of sequences from the …

Based on mitochondrial and nuclear DNA-sequence data we identify and describe an
evolutionary separate lineage (Potamon pelops, sp. nov.) within the potamid freshwater crab …

Reflecting the wide variety of ideas and hypotheses concerning decapod phylogeny, the
world's leading decapodologists assemble their knowledge in this volume for the sole …

The higher taxonomy of the 20 known genera of Afrotropical freshwater crabs is revised to
reflect the evolutionary relationships revealed by the consensus of a series of recent …

Cladistic and phenetic relationships of 51 eubrachyuran crab genera, comprising 36 genera
of marine crabs and 18 genera of true freshwater crabs from 7 families, were investigated …

We investigated the ultrastructure of spermatozoa and spermatophores of 19 palaeotropical
freshwater crab species [12 species of the Gecarcinucidae, 6 of the Potamidae …

Eubrachyurans are currently divided into two subsections based on the anatomical position
of the seminal duct termini. Heterotremes have the seminal ducts passing through the …
