Book Description
Jocelyn Crane presents a survey of the members of the genus Uca, with special reference to their morphology, social behavior, and evolution. Her account is firmly based on numerous field studies along the world's warmer shores and on comparative work in laboratories and museums. Originally published in 1975. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

Book Description
The book contains assessment of fiddler crab diversity, revealed presence of three species namely U. annulipes, U. vocans and U. dussumieri in intertidal area of Mumbai, only U. annulipes occur in greater abundance. Physiological and biochemical analysis of U. annulipes shows that, the crab could adjust to various ecological conditions by restoring to physiological and biochemical mechanisms like respiratory rates and tissue metabolites respectively. A thick population of U. annulipes at certain areas where settling of faecal matter was more. Therefore, the species can be seen as cleaning agent of that particular area confirms the important role played by the fiddler crabs in maintaining intertidal ecosystem. Therefore, the data presented in the thesis on diversity and ecology of the fiddler crabs will be helpful in knowing the effect of coastal pollution on macrobenthos in near future.
Atlas of Crabs of the Persian Gulf
Author: Reza NaderlooPublisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319493744
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 440
Book Description
This illustrated atlas describes 256 extant brachyuran crab species in the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman. Identification keys are provided for 37 brachyuran families, 144 genera and 256 species on the basis of their main synapomorphies. Brief but precise descriptions highlighting the main characteristics are also provided for every family. The atlas displays features high-quality color photos, offering a hands-on guide and equipping readers to readily diagnose crab species in the region. Importantly, a line drawing of the first male gonopod, as well as its main diagnostic characteristics, are provided for all species. Further, every species is supplemented with synonymies that encompass the original descriptions, overall revision of the given taxa, monographs and all records from the northwestern Indian Ocean including the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman. For each species, the book provides detailed local and global distribution maps, together with important ecological data including habitat preference. Further, it includes a general introduction to the brachyuran crabs with schematic drawings of their external morphology, as well as a comprehensive introduction to the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman as marine ecoregions (geography, hydrology, biology, and environmental condition). The book offers an indispensable guide for all professionals, researchers, and students interested in brachyuran crabs around the globe and particularly in the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman.
