Among the invertebrates, most statocyst research has been done with such decapod crustaceans as lobsters.
Stable isotopes, mesocosms and gut content analysis demonstrate trophic differences in two invasive decapod crustaceans.
These are the long-bodied decapod crustaceans, such as shrimps, prawns, crayfish, and lobsters.
Mating behaviors and mating systems in decapod crustaceans have attracted significant attentions.
Like other ribbon worms of the family Carcinonemertidae, they are specialised predators of the eggs of decapod crustaceans, in this case the red king crab Paralithodes camtschaticus.
In this study, we describe and test a new passive collector for postlarvae of benthic decapod crustaceans.
Macroconsumers, such as fish, decapod crustaceans, and amphibians, can be important determinants of stream structure and function.
Beltz, B. et al. Serotonergic innervation and modulation of the stomatogastric ganglion of three decapod crustaceans (Panulirus interruptus, Homarus americanus, and Cancer irroratus).
In decapod crustaceans, particularly crabs, the statocyst is anything but a simple spherical vesicle; it has a very complicated shape with several curved invaginations and projections.
Such experiments reveal that both vertebrates and decapod crustaceans (e.g., shrimp) exhibit spontaneous and statolith-induced neural activity in the lining (epithelium) of the gravity receptor.
There are two parasitic groups: the superorder Rhizocephala, found primarily on decapod crustaceans, and the infraclass Ascothoracida, found on echinoderms and cnidarian corals.
