Competent larvae of most benthic marine invertebrates including brachyuran decapod crustaceans can delay their settlement and metamorphosis in the absence of suitable environmental cues. This however may carry significant costs for the post-larval pe...

Mangrove crabs as key ecosystem engineers may play an important role in the recovery process of storm-damaged forests. Yet, their response to storm disturbance is largely unknown. Here we compare the ground-dwelling brachyuran crab community of intac...

Tropical coastal and marine social–ecological systems (CM-SES) are diverse, complex and dynamic, facing special challenges as hotspots of biodiversity and centres of population growth. Sustainability science focuses on the state of such systems and m...

Effects of geophysical cycles on the rhythm of mass mate searching of a harvested mangrove crab (2012)
Journal Article
Schmidt, A. J., Bemvenuti, C. E., & Diele, K. (2012). Effects of geophysical cycles on the rhythm of mass mate searching of a harvested mangrove crab. Animal Behaviour, 84(2), 333-340. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.anbehav.2012.04.023

The harvested mangrove crab Ucides cordatus exhibits conspicuous cycles of searching for mates en masse. This phenomenon, called andada, always occurs at the syzygies, but the particular moon phase, full, new or rarely both, varies for unknown reason...
