Published online at www.arthropod-systematics.de on 17.vi.2009. > Abstract The mantis shrimps (Stomatopoda) are quintessential marine predators. The combination of powerful raptorial appendages and remarkably developed sensory systems place the stomatopods among the most effi cient invertebrate predators. High level phylogenetic analyses have been so far based on morphology. Crown-group Unipeltata appear to have diverged in two broad directions from the outset – one towards highly effi cient ‘spearing’ with multispinous dactyli on the raptorial claws (dominated by Lysiosquilloidea and Squilloidea), and the other towards ‘smashing’ (Gonodactyloidea). In a preliminary molecular study of stomatopod interrelationships, we assemble molecular data for mitochondrial 12S and 16S regions, combined with new sequences from the 16S and two regions of the nuclear 28S rDNA to compare with morphological hypotheses. Nineteen species representing 9 of 17 extant families and 3 of 7 superfamilies were analysed. The molecular data refl ect the overall patterns derived from morphology, especially in a monophyletic Squilloidea, a monophyletic Lysiosquilloidea and a monophyletic clade of gonodactyloid smashers. Molecular analyses, however, suggest the novel possibility that Hemisquillidae and possibly Pseudosquillidae, rather than being basal or near basal in Gonodactyloidea, may be basal overall to the extant stomatopods.

    Mantis shrimp - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mantis_shrimp Mantis shrimp Mantis shrimps , or stomatopods , are marine crustaceans of the Mantis shrimp order Stomatopoda . Some species have specialised calcified "clubs" that can strike with great power, while others have sharp forelimbs used Temporal range: 400–0 Ma to capture prey. They branched from other members of the class Pre Є Є O S D C P T J K Pg N Malacostraca around 340 million years ago. [2] Mantis shrimps typically grow to around 10 cm (3.9 in) in length. A few can reach up to 38 cm (15 in). [3] The largest mantis shrimp ever caught had a length of 46 cm (18 in); it was caught in the Indian River near Fort Pierce, Florida, in the United States.[4] A mantis shrimp's carapace (the bony, thick shell that covers crustaceans and some other species) covers only the rear part of Odontodactylus scyllarus the head and the first four segments of the thorax. Varieties range from shades of brown to vivid colors, as more than 450 species of mantis Scientific classification shrimps are known. They are among the most important predators in Kingdom: Animalia many shallow, tropical and subtropical marine habitats. However, Phylum: Arthropoda despite being common, they are poorly understood, as many species spend most of their lives tucked away in burrows and holes.

    © 2015. Published by The Company of Biologists Ltd | The Journal of Experimental Biology (2015) 218, 2055-2066 doi:10.1242/jeb.122036 RESEARCH ARTICLE Ultraviolet filters in stomatopod crustaceans: diversity, ecology and evolution Michael J. Bok*,§, Megan L. Porter‡ and Thomas W. Cronin ABSTRACT 1988; Marshall et al., 1991a) and at least five receptors sensitive to Stomatopod crustaceans employ unique ultraviolet (UV) optical filters various spectral ranges of ultraviolet (UV) light (Kleinlogel and in order to tune the spectral sensitivities of their UV-sensitive Marshall, 2009; Marshall and Oberwinkler, 1999). Underlying photoreceptors. In the stomatopod species Neogonodactylus oerstedii, these diverse visual sensitivities is an array of optical and retinal we previously found four filter types, produced by five distinct structural modifications (Horridge, 1978; Marshall et al., 1991a; mycosporine-like amino acid pigments in the crystalline cones of their Schiff et al., 1986), the expression of a great number of opsins specialized midband ommatidial facets. This UV-spectral tuning array resulting in the most visual pigments yet described in a single eye produces receptors with at least six distinct spectral sensitivities, (Cronin and Marshall, 1989b; Cronin et al., 1993; Porter et al., 2009, despite expressing only two visual pigments. Here, we present a 2013), and the tuning of spectral sensitivity via serial filtering broad survey of these UV filters across the stomatopod order, effects due to more distal visual pigments as well as photostable examining their spectral absorption properties in 21 species from colored pigments (Cronin and Marshall, 1989a; Cronin et al., seven families in four superfamilies. We found that UV filters are 1994a,b, 2014; Marshall, 1988; Marshall et al., 1991b; Porter et al., present in three of the four superfamilies, and evolutionary character 2010).

    Zoologica Scripta Phylogenetic position, systematic status, and divergence time of the Procarididea (Crustacea: Decapoda) HEATHER D. BRACKEN,SAMMY DE GRAVE,ALICIA TOON,DARRYL L. FELDER &KEITH A. CRANDALL Submitted: 10 June 2009 Bracken, H. D., De Grave, S., Toon, A., Felder, D. L. & Crandall, K. A. (2010). Phylo- Accepted: 1 September 2009 genetic position, systematic status, and divergence time of the Procarididea (Crustacea: doi:10.1111/j.1463-6409.2009.00410.x Decapoda).—Zoologica Scripta, 39, 198–212. Ever since discovery of the anchialine shrimp, Procaris ascensionis Chace & Manning 1972, there has been debate as to its systematic position in relationship to other shrimp-like decapods. Several morphological characters have suggested a close affinity among Proc- arididae, Dendrobranchiata and Stenopodidea, whereas other physical features unite Proc- arididae with Caridea. Few molecular studies have examined the phylogenetic position of procaridid shrimp due to limited available material for genetic analyses. Those studies show procaridids as sister to carideans but lack sufficient taxon and locus sampling to vali- date the relationship. Here, we present a molecular phylogeny of selected individuals across decapod infraorders and superfamilies to clarify the phylogenetic position of proca- ridid shrimp. One mitochondrial (16S) and three nuclear genes (18S, 28S, H3) have been chosen to elucidate relationships. We used Bayesian molecular dating methods imple- mented in multidivtime to estimate and compare the divergence times among procaridids and other lineages. Findings secure the placement of the procaridids as a sister clade to carideans. Results provide evidence for the recognition of procaridids as a separate infra- order (Procarididea Felgenhauer & Abele 1983) within the Decapoda on the basis of mole- cular and morphological data.

    J. South Asian Nat. Hist., ISSN 1022-0828. May, 2001. Vol. 5, No. 2, pp. 167-172,3 figs. © 2001, Wildlife Heritage Trust of Sri Lanka, 95 Cotta Road, Colombo 8, Sri Lanka. Lysiosquillina lisa, a new species of mantis shrimp from the Indo-West Pacific (Stomatopoda: Lysiosquillidae) Shane T. Ahyong* & John E. Randall** * Dept of Marine Invertebrates, Australian Museum, 6 College St, Sydney, New South Wales 2010, Australia. ** Bishop Museum, 1525 Bernice St., Honolulu, Hawaii 96817-2704, USA. Abstract Lysiosquillina lisa sp. nov., from Indonesia is the fourth species of the genus to be recognised. This new species has frequently been observed by scuba divers at depths of 20-25 m on volcanic sands at the base of coral reefs ranging from the Andaman Sea to Indonesia, Papua New Guinea and the Philippines. Lysiosquillina lisa is readily recognised by its bright, orange-brown coloration but is also the only known member of the Lysiosquillidae bearing a 2- instead of 3-segmented mandibular palp. A key to the species of Lysiosquillina is given. Key words: Lysiosquillidae, Lysiosquillina lisa, taxonomy, Stomatopoda. Introduction The lysiosquillid genus Lysiosquillina was erected by the midline and excludes the rostral plate. Propodal Manning (1995) for two Indo-West Pacific species L. index (PI) of the raptorial claw is given as 100CL maculata (Fabricius, 1793), L. sulcata (Manning, 1978), divided by the propodus length.

Patek and Todd E. Dawson, Co-Chairs The paradigm that animals with specialized feeding morphology consume specific prey types is central to current understanding of ecological and evolutionary processes seen in nature. Mantis shrimp, or stomatopod crustaceans, are often hailed as having highly specialized feeding morphology; their raptorial appendages produce among the fastest, most powerful strikes ever reported in the animal kingdom, allowing species to capture fast-moving prey or to crush hard- shelled prey. While all stomatopods have appendages that produce fast movements, their appendage forms differ dramatically, which has led researchers to divide stomatopods into two groups: spearers that unfurl streamlined appendages to capture soft-bodied, evasive prey, and smashers that generate enough force to crush hard-shelled prey with hammer-like appendages.
