“…Species of Fabia are sexually dimorphic and undergo remarkable morphological changes in their life history (Pearse 1966;Campos 1996). These developmental changes and coupled with sexual dimorphism have led to some authors describing the same species twice (see below ;Campos 1996). Fenucci (1975) discovered one of these mistakes during a study of sexual pairs of specimens livings symbiotically with the bivalve Glycimeris longior (Sowerby, 1832).…”

“…He found that the morphology of the female concurred with F. insularis Melo, 1971, while the male agreed with Pinnotheres emiliai Melo, 1971. Fenucci (1975 accordingly synonymized both species and his conclusions were later followed by Campos (1996). Martins & D'Incao (1998), as well as Melo (1998), Boschi et al (1992) and Bezerra et al (2006), subsequently revalidated both Melo's species.…”

“…The pinnotherid genus Fabia Dana, 1851, is composed of eight American species of symbiotic crabs: the Atlantic Fabia byssomiae (Say, 1818), F. tellinae Cobb, 1973, F. emiliai (Melo, 1971), and F. felderi Gore, 1986, and the Pacific F. subquadrata (Dana, 1851), F. concharum (Rathbun, 1893), F. malaguena (Garth, 1948), and F. carvachoi Campos, 1996(see Campos 1996Gore 1986;Campos & Manning 1998).

Remarks on the sexual dimorphism and taxonomy of Fabia Dana, 1851 (Crustacea, Brachyura, Pinnotheridae)

A study of the holotype of Pinnotheres hemphilli Rathbun, 1918, revealed it is an early post-hard female, not a male, of Fabia Dana, 1851. The morphology of Pinnotheres emiliai Melo, 1971 (based on a male specimen) and Fabia insularis Melo, 1971 (based on a female specimen) confirm earlier hypothesis that they belong to a sexually dimorphic species that should be known as F. emiliai (Melo, 1971). The redescription of the holotype of Fabia felderi Gore, 1986, supports its generic assignment and its relationship with F. emiliai. The implication of sexual dimorphism and intersexes in the taxonomy of Fabia is discussed.Key words: Crustacea, Pinnotheridae, sexual dimorphism, intersex, taxonomy, Fabia ResumenEl estudio del holotipo de Pinnotheres hemphilli Rathbun, 1918, reveló que éste es una hembra posdura, no un macho, perteneciente al género Fabia Dana, 1851. Las morfologías de Pinnotheres emiliai Melo, 1971 (basada sobre un espéci-men macho) y Fabia insularis Melo, 1971(basada sobre un espécimen hembra) confirman una hipótesis previa que ellos pertenecen a una especie sexualmente dimórfica que debe ser conocida como F. emiliai (Melo, 1971). La redescripción del holotipo de Fabia felderi Gore, 1986, apoya su asignación genérica y su relación con F. emiliai. Se discuten las implicaciones del dimorfismo sexual e intersexos en la taxonomía de Fabia.

“…Phylogeny and classification of the pinnotherids have been the aim of many revisions based on adults and larvae morphology and DNA sequences (Ahyong and Ng 2007;Campos 1996aCampos , b, 2009Griffith 1987;Marques and Pohle 1995;Palacios-Theil et al 2009;Pohle and Marques 1998). Particularly, the genera Calyptraeotheres and Tumidotheres have been the focus of debate.…”

Larval development of Calyptraeotheres garthi (Fenucci, 1975) (Brachyura, Pinnotheridae) described from laboratory-reared material, with notes of larval character use on Pinnotheridae systematic

Calyptraeotheres garthi (Brachyura, Pinnotheridae) is a pinnotherid crab that lives in association with some species of Crepidula sp. (Calyptraeidae). The larvae of C. garthi were cultured under laboratory conditions (20°C and 35 PSU). Larval development from hatchling to megalopa took 30 days. Five zoeal stages and the megalopa are described and fully illustrated. The genus Calyptraeotheres consists only of four species. Larval characters were compared with the previous description of larvae from the southeastern Pacific species C. politus and with Tumidotheres maculatus a closely related pinnotherid crab. In addition, in light of recent molecular phylogeny of the family Pinnotheridae, we present a discussion about the Calyptraeotheres and its close related genera.

Most pea crab species (Crustacea: Decapoda: Brachyura: Pinnotheridae) are characterized by their symbiotic lifestyle, often thought to be obligate parasites or commensals (Baeza, 2015). The degree of host dependency is, however, still unclear for most species. The species within the subfamily Pinnotherinae are known to be endo-or ectosymbiotic inhabitants of bivalves, polyplacophorans, gastropods, holothurians, echinoids, brachiopods, and ascidians (de Gier & Becker, 2020). Although some species have a broad host spectrum spanning across various phyla, most species of Pinnotherinae are considered to be specialists. This means that these species are only inhabiting specific genera or orders within a host phylum. Several species of the two smaller subfamilies (Pinnixinae and Pinnixulalinae) are also found in bivalve, or in/on holothurian hosts in their adult stages, but most are considered to be free-living or tube/ burrow-dwelling, sharing this habitat with a worm, ghost shrimp, or mud lobster as a host (inquilism; see Palacios Theil et al., 2016;
