Stimulation of Filter Feeding by Amino Acids in Three Porcelain Crab Species: Petrolisthes Cinctipes, Petrolisthes Eriomerus, and Pachycheles Rudis
Stimulation of filter feeding by amino acids in three porcelain crab species: Petrolisthes cinctipes, Petrolisthes eriomerus, and Pachycheles rudis Sarah Green Exploratory 2, Adaptations ofMarine Mammals, Prof. Charlie Hunter Oregon Institute ofMarine Biology, University of Oregon, Charleston, Oregon 97420 Introduction Petrolisthes cinctipes, a species ofporcelain crab, is commonly found in the higher to mid-intertidal zones ofthe rocky shores ofOregon (Wicksten, 1973). Petrolisthes eriomerus and Pachycheles rudis, the other two species ofporcelain crab found on the Oregon coast can be found in the low intertidal zone. All three species can be found under rocks and among mussels in mussel beds (Sept, 1999). The three species ofporcelain crab filter feed, fanning plankton and detritus (Petrolisthes cinctipes and Pachycheles rudis) from the water, or pelagic diatoms, benthic diatoms, and green algal filaments from the water (Petrolisthes eriomerus) (MagGinite, 1937; Wicksten, 1973). The mechanics offilter feeding in porcelain crabs has been thoroughly documented by Wicksten (1973). Food particles can be trapped by alternately flexing the endopodites ofthe third maxillapeds. The food particles are then removed from the setae on the third maxillapeds by the setose ends ofthe second maxillapeds. Food particles are then selected and sorted by the inner mouth parts. Little research has been reported on compounds promoting feeding behavior in porcelain crabs. L-tyrosine has been shown to elicit a feeding response in Petrolisthes cinctipes, as have other amino acids. As there are no particles in the water when testing an amino acid, chemoreception ofsmall compounds must stimulate the feeding response (Hartman et aI., 1977). I hypothesize that the stimulation ofthe feeding response in Petrolisthes cinctipes, Petrolisthes eriomerus, and Pachycheles rudis will differ in response to various amino acids because ofthe their location in the intertidal. -
Hiller & Lessios 2017
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Phylogeography of Petrolisthes armatus, an invasive species with low dispersal ability Received: 20 February 2017 Alexandra Hiller & Harilaos A. Lessios Accepted: 27 April 2017 Theoretically, species with high population structure are likely to expand their range, because marginal Published: xx xx xxxx populations are free to adapt to local conditions; however, meta-analyses have found a negative relation between structure and invasiveness. The crab Petrolisthes armatus has a wide native range, which has expanded in the last three decades. We sequenced 1718 bp of mitochondrial DNA from native and recently established populations to determine the population structure of the former and the origin of the latter. There was phylogenetic separation between Atlantic and eastern Pacific populations, and between east and west Atlantic ones. Haplotypes on the coast of Florida and newly established populations in Georgia and South Carolina belong to a different clade from those from Yucatán to Brazil, though a few haplotypes are shared. In the Pacific, populations from Colombia and Ecuador are highly divergent from those from Panamá and the Sea of Cortez. In general, populations were separated hundreds to million years ago with little subsequent gene flow. High genetic diversity in the newly established populations shows that they were founded by many individuals. Range expansion appears to have been limited by low dispersal rather than lack of ability of marginal populations to adapt to extreme conditions. The population-genetic constitution of marine invasive species in their native range is increasingly being stud- ied in efforts to determine the source of invasions into new areas (reviews in refs 1–5). -

In August, 1939, west of Cape St. James, Lat. 52° 49' N, Long. 1340 29' W, three specimens were obtained on a tuna lure and were recorded in 1940 by V. J. Samson. The albacore has been captured off the west coast of Vancouver Island in increasing numbers since 1939. The first large commercial catch was made in 1940. The abundance of the fish has proven to be rather variable in Canadian waters as it has off the California coast. This pelagic fish is distributed throughout all warm to temperate seas. Since no mature individuals have been taken anywhere along the Pacific coast of North America, it would seem that the albacore is a tropical fish whose young make extensive feeding migrations to distant regions and return to the tropics at the onset of maturity. The food consists of schooling small fishes such as anchovies, pilchards, herring, saunes, young mackerel and albacore, blue lanternfish (Tarle- tonbeania crenularis), as well as squid and zooplankton. It is a highly-prized sport and commercial fish and is taken with jigs made of bone, rags and feathers, towed behind boats. The commercial catch in Canadian waters is secured by trolling with bright red feather lures and is frozen for the most part, for subsequent canning. Fishermen sometimes refer to the albacore as the tuna or longfin tuna. -

With few exceptions, each species is accompanied by illustrations of taxonomic importance; its first reporter is referenced, supplemented by a subsequent record from the area. Necessary schematic diagrams explaining terminologies are also included. KEY WORDS: Malacostraca, Decapoda, Anomura, Arabian Sea - key. INTRODUCTION The Infraorder Anomura is well represented in Northern Arabian Sea (Paldstan) (see Tirmizi and Kazmi, 1993). Some important investigations and documentations on the diversity of anomurans belonging to families Hippidae, Albuneidae, Lithodidae, Coenobitidae, Paguridae, Parapaguridae, Diogenidae, Porcellanidae, Chirostylidae and Galatheidae are as follows: Alcock, 1905; Henderson, 1893; Miyake, 1953, 1978; Tirmizi, 1964, 1966; Lewinsohn, 1969; Mustaquim, 1972; Haig, 1966, 1974; Tirmizi and Siddiqui, 1981, 1982; Tirmizi, et al., 1982, 1989; Hogarth, 1988; Tirmizi and Javed, 1993; and Siddiqui and Kazmi, 2003, however these informations are scattered and fragmentary. In 1983 McLaughlin suppressed the old superfamily Coenobitoidea and combined it with the superfamily Paguroidea and placed all hermit crab families under the superfamily Paguroidea. -
