This volume, 9B, covers the infraorders of the Astacidea that were not covered in volume 9A
(Enoplometopoidea, Nephropoidea and Glypheidea) as well as the Axiidea, Gebiidea and …

The preamble to the Systema Brachyurorum (Ng et al., 2008), the catalysis for this and
similar annotated checklists, began with the readers' attentions directed to previous …

The family Aeglidae comprises three genera, one extant (Aegla) and two extinct genera
(Protaegla and Haumuriaegla), the latter two genera are known only from fossils from …

The controversial interrelationships of the major clades of the reptant decapods are resolved
by simultaneous analysis of 16S, 18S, and 28S rRNA sequences in combination with …

ABSTRACT A cladistic analysis based on external morphology was carried out on 60 taxa of
dec crustaceans. An analysis with unordered characters and one with ordered characters …

Recently new heuristic genetic algorithms such as Treefinder and MetaGA have been
developed to search for optimal trees in a maximum likelihood (ML) framework. In this study …

The hypothesis of monophyly in Paguroidea and the relationship of this superfamily to the
other three superfamilies of Anomura have been reassessed using current cladistic methods …

Abstract The speciose genus Aegla Leach, 1820 is the only valid extant genus of the
anomuran family Aeglidae, bearing 83 known species. This diversity may be even greater …

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

The freshwater anomuran crabs of the family Aeglidae are all restricted to southern South
America occurring in Chile, Brazil, Bolivia, Uruguay, Paraguay, and Argentina. The family …
