The Aerobic Metabolism and Behavior of the Burrow-dwelling Mantis Shrimp, HEMISQUILLA ENSIGERA CALIFORNIENSIS
<p>The predatory stomatopod <em>Hemisquilla ensigera californiensis</em>was captured at 10-20 m depths off California and transferred to an observation tank with artificial burrows similar to those observed in the field. The animals were maintained under a 1OL:140 light-dark cycle and monitored on …

Interactions between Portunion Conformis (Epicaridea: Entoniscidae) and two host species
Portunion conformis castrates the crab Hemigrapsus oregonensis. Piltz (1969) found P. conformis in both H. oregonensis and Hemigrapsus nudus. Kuris (1971) studied the interactions between P. conformis and H. oregonensis occurring in Bodega Bay, California. In the present study, interactions between …
