Neural organization of the second optic neuropil, the medulla, in the highly visual semiterrestrial crab Neohelice granulata.
Crustaceans are widely distributed and inhabit very different niches. Many of them are highly visual animals. Nevertheless, the neural composition of crustacean optic neuropils deeper than the lamina is mostly unknown. In particular, semiterrestrial crabs possess a highly developed visual system and display conspicuous visually guided behaviors. A previous study shows that the first optic neuro...
متن کاملSurface expression of NMDA receptor changes during memory consolidation in the crab Neohelice granulata.
The aim of the present study was to analyze the surface expression of the NMDA-like receptors during the consolidation of contextual learning in the crab Neohelice granulata Memory storage is based on alterations in the strength of synaptic connections between neurons. The glutamatergic synapses undergo various forms of N-methyl-D aspartate receptor (NMDAR)-dependent changes in strength, a proc...
متن کاملDietary copper effects in the estuarine crab, Neohelice (Chasmagnathus) granulata, maintained at two different salinities.
We analyzed the dietary copper effects in the estuarine crab Neohelice (Chasmagnathus) granulata and its interaction with water salinity. Crabs were maintained at 2 per thousand and 30 per thousand salinity for 5 weeks and they were fed with commercial food supplemented with the green alga Scenedesmus vacuolatus previously exposed to copper. No mortalities were observed, but crabs maintained at...
متن کاملAir exposure behavior of the semiterrestrial crab Neohelice granulata allows tolerance to severe hypoxia but not prevent oxidative damage due to hypoxia–reoxygenation cycle
The air exposure behavior of the semi-terrestrial crab Neohelice granulata during severe hypoxia was studied. This study also verified whether this behavior mitigates possible oxidative damage, namely lipoperoxidation, caused by hypoxia and reoxygenation cycles. The lethal time for 50% of the crabs subjected to severe hypoxia (0.5 mgO2 · L(-1)) with free access to air was compared to that of cr...
متن کاملVisuo-motor transformations involved in the escape response to looming stimuli in the crab Neohelice (=Chasmagnathus) granulata.
Escape responses to directly approaching predators represent one instance of an animal's ability to avoid collision. Usually, such responses can be easily evoked in the laboratory using two-dimensional computer simulations of approaching objects, known as looming stimuli. Therefore, escape behaviors are considered useful models for the study of computations performed by the brain to efficiently...
