Journal Article
Martins, C. G., De Grande, F. R., & Costa, T. M. (2024). Fiddler crabs can feel more than we think: the influence of neighbors on the activities of the fiddler crab Leptuca uruguayensis. Hydrobiologia, 851(15), 3541-3552. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10750-024-05506-5

Fiddler crabs have been used as model organisms in many laboratory and field studies. In their natural environment, social interaction with other fiddler crabs (conspecific or heterospecific) is recurrent, but manipulative studies involving these cra...
