  • And Individual-Level Reproductive Parameters of the Blue-Legged Hermit Crab Clibanarius Tricolor
    Small-scale spatial variation in population- and individual-level reproductive parameters of the blue-legged hermit crab Clibanarius tricolor J. Antonio Baeza1,2,3 and Donald C. Behringer4,5 1 Department of Biological Sciences, Clemson University, Clemson, SC, United States 2 Smithsonian Marine Station at Fort Pierce, Fort Pierce, FL, United States 3 Departamento de Biologia Marina, Universidad Catolica del Norte, Coquimbo, IV Region, Chile 4 School of Forest Resources and Conservation, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL, United States 5 Emerging Pathogens Institute, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL, United States ABSTRACT Management of the few regulated ornamental fisheries relies on inadequate information about the life history of the target species. Herein, we investigated the reproductive biology of the most heavily traded marine invertebrate in the western Atlantic; the blue-legged hermit crab Clibanarius tricolor. We report on density, individual-level, and population-level reproductive parameters in 14 populations spanning the Florida Keys. In C. tricolor, abundance, population-level, and individual-level reproductive parameters exhibited substantial small-scale spatial variation in the Florida Keys. For instance, the proportion of brooding females varied between 10–94% across localities. In females, average (±SD) fecundity varied between 184 (±54) and 614 (±301) embryos crab-1 across populations. Fecundity usually increases with female body size in hermit crabs. However, we found no effect of female body size on fecundity in three of the populations. Altogether, our observations suggest that C. tricolor may fit a source- sink metapopulation dynamic in the Florida Keys with low reproductive intensity and absence of a parental body size—fecundity relationship resulting in net reproductive Submitted 25 October 2016 loses at some localities.
