Population genetic and phylogeographic insights into the phyllosomal odyssey
… elucidate the factors driving specific patterns. Spiny lobsters (Decapoda; Palinuridae) have one of the longest pelagic durations, with some phyllosoma wandering the wine-dark sea for over a year. To gain insight into this odyssey, I combine mitochondrial DNA sequences and nuclear microsatellites …

The Ecological Ramifications of Disease and Density in the Caribbean Spiny Lobster, <i>Panulirus argus</i>
… virus that infects juvenile Caribbean spiny lobster, <em>Panulirus argus</em>, in the waters off south Florida (USA), and it alters the behavior and ecology of this species in fundamental ways. Gross signs of HLV-PA infection are lethargy, morbidity, cessation of molting, and …

Ecology of the Early Life History of the Caribbean Spiny Lobster, <i>Panulirus argus:</i> Recruitment, Predation, and Habitat Requirements
… postlarvae and early juveniles of the Caribbean spiny lobster. I examined patterns in postlarval supply, investigated wind forcing as a potential transport mechanism for recruiting postlarvae, and quantified predation on postlarvae in south Florida, USA. In an eight-year time series, spiny …

Impacts of the Spotted Spiny Lobster (<i>Panulirus guttatus</i>) on the Long-Spined Sea Urchin (<i>Diadema antillarum</i>) and Patch Reef Communities in the Florida Keys
… supply coupled with predation on juveniles. Lobsters are sea urchin predators in other systems and the spotted spiny lobster (<em>Panulirus guttatus </em>) is abundant on coral reefs in the Florida Keys, where I investigated their role as nocturnal, philopatric carnivores on patch reef …
