Shell Selection in the Hermit Crab Clibanarius signatus Heller, 1861 from the Larak Island in the Persian Gulf
Shell selection indices of the dominant hermit crab Clibanarius signatus Heller, 1861, in the Larak Island were studied from September 2011 to June 2012. Among 739 sampled specimens, 41 different gastropod shell types were selected as shelters based on their abundance and local availability. A significant positive correlation (P<0/01) was found between the dimensions of the hermit crab, Cli...
متن کاملSmall-scale spatial variation in population- and individual-level reproductive parameters of the blue-legged hermit crab Clibanarius tricolor
Management of the few regulated ornamental fisheries relies on inadequate information about the life history of the target species. Herein, we investigated the reproductive biology of the most heavily traded marine invertebrate in the western Atlantic; the blue-legged hermit crab Clibanarius tricolor. We report on density, individual-level, and population-level reproductive parameters in 14 pop...
متن کاملSpermatophore transfer in the hermit crab Clibanarius vittatus (Crustacea, Anomura, Diogenidae).
Although mating has been described in several hermit crab species, the mechanics of spermatophore transfer have not previously been demonstrated. Evidence from pleopod and gonopore morphology, video observations, and inseminated females indicates that in Clibanarius vittatus the male applies a spermatophoric mass directly onto the female via the gonopores rather than with modified pleopods 1-2 ...
