The Vtg gene, mRNA and protein regulation involve several environmental factors and physiological processes, including gonadal maturation and moult stages, among others. Once the Vtg gene, mRNAs and protein are obtained, it is possible to establish the relationship between the elements that participate in their regulation, which could either be species-specific, or tissue-specific. This work is a systematic analysis that compares the similarities and differences of Vtg genes, mRNA and Vtg between the crustacean species reported in databases with respect to that obtained from the transcriptome of Callinectes arcuatus, C. toxotes, Penaeus stylirostris and P. vannamei obtained with MiSeq sequencing technology from Illumina. Those analyses confirm that the Vtg obtained from selected species will serve to understand the process of vitellogenesis in crustaceans that is important for fisheries and aquaculture. RESUMEN La vitelogénesis de los crustáceos es un proceso que involucra la vitelina, producida a través de la endoproteólisis de su precursor llamado Vitelogenina (Vtg). -

F. Davie Queensland Museum, PO Box 3300, South Brisbane, Queensland, Australia Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT. – An annotated checklist of the extant brachyuran crabs of the world is presented for the first time. Over 10,500 names are treated including 6,793 valid species and subspecies (with 1,907 primary synonyms), 1,271 genera and subgenera (with 393 primary synonyms), 93 families and 38 superfamilies. Nomenclatural and taxonomic problems are reviewed in detail, and many resolved. Detailed notes and references are provided where necessary. The constitution of a large number of families and superfamilies is discussed in detail, with the positions of some taxa rearranged in an attempt to form a stable base for future taxonomic studies. This is the first time the nomenclature of any large group of decapod crustaceans has been examined in such detail.

Corrected 08-VIII-2006. Accepted 16-III-2007. Abstract: Commercial bottom trawling is a successful and commonly used method to catch marine shrimps. However, the shrimp fishing gears are poorly selective, and in addition to the target species they catch and retain large quantities of non-target species (bycatch). This study presents data concerning species composition and depth distribution of the crustacean fauna (stomatopods and decapods) associated with Heterocarpus vicarius catches from Pacific Costa Rica. -
Development and Behavior of Megalopa Larvae and Juveniles of the Hydrothermal Vent Crab Bythograea Therm Ydron
MARINE ECOLOGY PROGRESS SERIES Published August 20 Mar Ecol Prog Ser I Development and behavior of megalopa larvae and juveniles of the hydrothermal vent crab Bythograea therm ydron C. E. Epifanio*, G. Perovich, A. I. Dittel, S. C. Cary Graduate College of Marine Studies, University of Delaware, Lewes, Delaware 19958, USA ABSTRACT: We collected megalopa larvae and early juveniles of the crab Bythograea thermydron from a depth of 2500 to 2600 m at a hydrothermal vent field along the East Pacific Rise (ca 9" to 10" N, 104' W). Taxononlic identification of the megalopa larvae was accomplished through the use of mor- phological characteristics corroborated by molecular genetic analysis of an amplified portion of DNA from the mitochondnal 16s rRNA gene. We successfully reared megalopa larvae through metamorpho- sis and through subsequent juvenile molts at atmospheric pressure in the laboratory. This is the first time that this has been reported for any vent species. Laboratory data were combined with measure- ments of field-caught juveniles to ailow estimation of carapace xvidth, dry weight, and Stage duration of the first 5 juvenile Stages. Results of behavioral experiments indicated that B. thermydron megalopae swim actively over the range of temperature expected near the vents (2 to 25'C). Swimming speed var- ied with temperature (4 to 10 cm s-'), but generaily exceeded the speed of bottom currents at the vent fields. Moreover, the propensity to swirn was inversely related to temperature. These results suggest that swimming behavior may be an important component of locating warm vent Settlement sites in the otherwise cold waters surrounding a vent field. -
A New Early Miocene Barnacle Lineage and the Roots of Sea-Turtle Fouling Chelonibiidae (Cirripedia, Balanomorpha) Mathias Harzhausera∗, William A
Journal of Systematic Palaeontology, Vol. 9, Issue 4, December 2011, 473–480 A new Early Miocene barnacle lineage and the roots of sea-turtle fouling Chelonibiidae (Cirripedia, Balanomorpha) Mathias Harzhausera∗, William A. Newmanb and Patrick Grunertc aGeological-Paleontological Department, Natural History Museum Vienna, Burgring 7, A-1014 Vienna, Austria; bScripps Institution of Oceanography, UCSD, 9500 Gilman Drive, La Jolla CA 92093, USA; cInstitute for Earth Sciences, University of Graz, Heinrichstraße 26, A-8010 Graz, Austria (Received 6 May 2010; accepted 15 Jul 2010; printed 29 November 2011) The origin of the mainly sea-turtle fouling balanomorph family Chelonibiidae is still poorly documented. Aside from an Eocene erratic specimen assigned to an extinct subfamily, the extant subfamily Chelonibiinae did not appear in the fossil record before the Late Miocene. Protochelonibiinae Harzhauser & Newman subfam. nov. is here introduced as an extinct sister-group of Chelonibiinae. The subfamily is known so far only from the proto-Mediterranean and the Paratethys seas and ranged from Early Miocene to Late Pliocene. Members of the subfamily are characterized by large walls with tripartite rostra which display distinct sutures on the external surface. The tripartite rostrum, however, has evolved independently several times in the evolution of the balanomorphs and cannot be treated as synapomorphy. The subfamily comprises one new genus and two species. Protochelonibia Harzhauser & Newman gen. nov. is the type genus of Protochelonibiinae and Protochelonibia submersa Harzhauser & Newman sp. nov. is introduced as type species of this genus. Chelonobia Capellinii [sic] De Alessandri, 1895, from the Late Pliocene of Italy, reassigned as Protochelonibia capellinii (De Alessandri, 1895), is the youngest record of the subfamily. -

One of the alternatives to mitigate this reduction, is the diversification of the fishery and aquaculture activity, through value creation.To do this, there is a great number of species to cultivate and that have not been seized due to the lack of interest or knowledge, in addition that the fishery communities have not been provided with the sufficient technology to allow its -
