Embryology of the spider crabs Leurocyclus tuberculosus (H. Milne-Edwards & Lucas 1842) and Libinia spinosa (H. Milne-Edwards 1834) (Brachyura, Majoidea).
The embryonic development of the spider crabs Leurocyclus tuberculosus and Libinia spinosa was divided into five periods based on the differentiation of: (I) cleavage, (II) embryonic primordium, III) optic lobes, (IV) optic lobes pigmented and (V) chromatophores presence. Different traits such as spines, setae and telson morphology distinguish the two species from period III until hatching. Egg...
متن کاملRevision of the genus Glyptoxanthus A. Milne-Edwards, 1879, and establishment of Glyptoxanthinae nov. subfam. (Crustacea: Decapoda: Brachyura: Xanthidae)
The xanthid genus Glyptoxanthus A. Milne-Edwards, 1879, known from the tropical eastern Pacific, western and eastern Atlantic, and the Red Sea, is revised as part of an ongoing revision of the subfamily Euxanthinae Alcock, 1898. Analysis of morphological characters shows that Glyptoxanthus must be excluded from the subfamily Euxanthinae and placed in a distinct subfamily, Glyptoxanthinae nov. s...
متن کاملTwo New Species of Parathelphusa H. Milne Edwards, 1853, from the Philippines (crustacea: Decapoda: Brachyura: Parathelphusidae)
– Two new species of freshwater crabs in the genus Parathelphusa H. Milne Edwards, 1853, are described from Palawan Island in the Philippines. The new species are each easily distinguished from their closest congeners by characters of the male first pleopod, in conjunction with a unique combination of other morphological characters. A key to the Parathelphusa species of the Philippines is provi...
متن کاملComplete larval development of the Brachyuran crab (Epixanthus Frontalis H. Milne Edwards, 1834) (Crustacea, Decapoda, Eriphioidea, Oziidae) under laboratory conditions.
The complete larval development of the oziid crab Epixanthus frontalis (H. Milne Edwards, 1834) hatched from ovigerous specimens collected from Saso Island, southern Red Sea, was obtained under laboratory conditions. Four zoeae, one additional zoea and a megalopa were obtained and these are described and illustrated in detail for the first time. Larvae of this species can be differentiated from...
متن کاملThe Red Sea species of Cymo de Haan, 1833 (Decapoda, Brachyura, Xanthidae), associates of scleractinian corals.
Four species of Cymo, associates of scleractinian corals, from the Red Sea were studied using scanning electron and light microscopy. Characters based on the morphologies of the carapace, gonopods and digestive tract (gastric teeth) were investigated and described in detail. All Red Sea species are redescribed, distinguishing characters are identified and an identification key is provided. Cymo...
