Description of the newly-hatched juvenile of Aegla paulensis (Decapoda, Anomura, Aeglidae).
The postembryonic development of Aegla paulensis is epimorphic (= direct), in which the hatching form is a juvenile that morphologically resembles the adult. Hatching is asynchronous, taking 3-5 days for all juveniles from a single brood to hatch. This paper provides a complete description of the external morphology of the newly-hatched juvenile of A. paulensis as analyzed through light microsc...
متن کاملExtended Parental Care in Communal Social Groups
Recent developments in social insect research have challenged the need for close kinship as a prerequisite for the evolution of stable group living. In a model communal bee species, Lasioglossum (Chilalictus) hemichalceum, previous allozyme work indicated that groups of cooperating adult females are not relatives. Yet at any given time, not all group members perform the risky task of foraging. ...
متن کاملExtended parental care in crustaceans – an update
Many crustacean species show extended parental care (XPC) for fully developed juvenile offspring. Herein, the present state of knowledge of the major patterns and consequences of XPC is reviewed, and furthermore important future research topics are identified. Crustaceans with XPC are found in marine, freshwater and terrestrial environments, but care for late juvenile stages appears to be more ...
متن کاملMolecular systematics and biogeography of the southern South american freshwater "crabs" Aegla (decapoda: Anomura: Aeglidae) using multiple heuristic tree search approaches.
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 we combined these methods with other standard heuristic approaches such as ML and maximum parsimony hill-climbing searches and Bayesian inference coupled with Markov chain Monte Carlo techniques under homogeneous and mixed ...
متن کاملThe Agononida incerta species complex unravelled (Crustacea: Decapoda: Anomura: Munididae)
Squat lobsters from Australia, east Africa, Taiwan, Philippines and the Norfolk Ridge (southwestern Pacific) previously identified as Agononida incerta (Henderson, 1888) are redescribed as four new species in addition to the original: A. africerta, A. auscerta, A. indocerta and A. norfocerta. A. rubrizonata Macpherson & Baba, 2009, also earlier confused with this species, is redescribed. All si...
