Small- and large-scale effect of the SW Atlantic burrowing crab Chasmagnathus granulatus on habitat use by migratory shorebirds

TL;DR: This information shows that this burrowing crab affects the small-scale habitat use by shorebirds, given that shorebirds never walk through the funnel-shaped entrances of burrows, and suggests that this shorebirds–burrowing organism interaction could be generalized for other intertidal estuarine habitats.
Journal ArticleDOI

Does the presence of the SW Atlantic burrowing crab Chasmagnathus granulatus Dana affect predator–prey interactions between shorebirds and polychaetes?

TL;DR: It is found that burrowing crabs can decrease the impact of predation by shorebirds on polychaetes, and this affects the strength of the predator–prey interaction between shorebirds and polychaETes.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Effect of Southwestern Atlantic Burrowing Crabs on Habitat Use and Foraging Activity of Migratory Shorebirds

TL;DR: It is shown that distribution of the crabs in the Mar Chiquita coastal lagoon, Argentina affected habitat use and feeding success of migratory shorebirds, and the same process could be occurring with other burrowing curstaceans such as thalassinidean shrimps in other estuaries of the world and could have important implications for management of flats for shorebirds.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of fish predation on intertidal benthic fauna is modified by crab bioturbation

TL;DR: Crab bioturbation facilitate fish predation on benthic prey, and field experiments shows that fishpredation decreases polychaete abundances only in crab beds.
