Fecundity of the Crab Callinectes Ornatus Ordway, 1863 (Decapoda, Brachyura, Portunidae) From the Ubatuba Region, São Paulo, Brazil

TL;DR: Callinectes ornatus showed lower fecundity than the remaining portunids studied, but they did show a rapid and efficient embryonic development, presumably capable of assuring reproductive success, and supports the hypothesis that portunid females present staggered spawning, possibly presenting more than one period of reproduction within one year.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular phylogeny of the freshwater prawn genus Macrobrachium (Decapoda, Palaemonidae), with emphasis on the relationships among selected American species

TL;DR: The phylogenetic analysis of new mitochondrial DNA sequences of 58 species of Macrobrachium distributed mainly in America support the hypothesis of monophyly of this genus, and conclude that the independent evolution of different types of life cycle must have occurred more than once in the history of the group.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of the physical and chemical parameters of Ubatuba Bay, Northern Coast of São Paulo State, Brazil

TL;DR: The objective of the present study is to characterize the physical and chemical environmental parameters of Ubatuba Bay, as a subsidy for studies of the composition and distribution of benthic crustaceans which live on the non-consolidated sublittoral bottom of this area.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reproductive biology and moulting cycle of the crab Callinectes ornatus (Decapoda, Portunidae) from the Ubatuba region, Sao Paulo, Brazil

TL;DR: Departamento de Biologia Faculdade de Filosofia Universidade de Sao Paulo, Av.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic variability of the Amazon River prawn Macrobrachium amazonicum (Decapoda, Caridea, Palaemonidae)

TL;DR: Compared and characterized inland and coastal populations of M. amazonicum from Brazil, using molecular data (16S and COI mtDNA) to describe the degree of variability, structure, and relationships among them and revealed that the populations form a single monophyletic clade, which supports their characterization as a single species.
