A review of the ecomorphology of pinnotherine pea crabs (Brachyura: Pinnotheridae), with an updated list of symbiont-host associations
Almost all pea crab species in the subfamily Pinnotherinae (Decapoda: Brachyura:
Pinnotheridae) are considered obligatory endo-or ectosymbionts, living in a mutualistic or …

Encountering suitable hosts is key for parasite success. A general assumption for disease
transmission is that the contact of a parasite with a potential host is driven by the density or …

Mixed-species assemblages and disease: the importance of differential vector and parasite attraction in transmission dynamics
Individuals from multiple species often aggregate at resources, group to facilitate defense
and foraging, or are brought together by human activity. While it is well-documented that …

Host-associated morphological convergence in symbiotic pea crabs
KM Hultgren, CL Foxx, E Palacios Theil - Evolutionary Ecology, 2022 - Springer
Many marine crustaceans form symbiotic relationships, yet there has been little work
quantifying morphological adaptations in species specialized on different hosts. Here we …
