the researchers are putting the strange shrimp together with the six-legged insects, Hexapoda, to form a new group they dubbed Miracrustacea,

or oesurprising crustaceans. As a oesister clade to hexapods, the Xenocarida likely represent the sort of creature that came onto land to start the spectacular flowering of the insect lineage,

Triops, a 2-inch crustacean that looks like a cross between a horseshoe crab and a mayfly, had also been thought of as an early crustacean,

but it too was shown to have a relatively modern origin in the new analysis, Cunningham said. oetaxonomists have been arguing about these things for decades,

scorpions, dragonflies, barnacles, copepods and centipedes. Remipedes, one of the two species of Xenocarida in the study, had to be fetched from partially submerged limestone caves in the Yucatan peninsula and preserved just so.

#Invasive crabs help Cape cod marshesecologists are wary of nonnative species but along the shores of Cape cod where grass-eating crabs have been running amok

and destroying the marsh an invasion of a predatory green crabs has helped turn back the tide in favor of the grass.

The counter-intuitive conclusions appear in a new paper in the journal Ecology. Long vilified invasive species can sometimes become an ecosystem asset.

There the invasive green crab Carcinus maenas is helping to restore the marsh by driving away the Sesarma reticulatum crabs that have been depleting the marsh grasses.

The observations and experiments of the research show that the green crab has filled the void left by the decline of native predators of sesarma crabs the authors said.

When we started seeing this recovery we started seeing loads of green crabs at the marshes that were recovering.

Crab vs. Crabthe most elementary finding of the paper is that the green crabs are much more abundant (as many as 2. 8 green crabs per square meter) in distressed

-but-healing marsh areas where can they take over sesarma burrows. In healthy marsh areas with few sesarma burrows the green crabs found no quarter (there were only 0. 2 per square meter.

Bertness and Coverdale's measurements of cordgrass regrowth also showed that locations with high green crab density correlated positively with locations of grass regrowth.

The next steps were experiments to test whether all this was a mere coincidence of coexistence

or whether there was a dynamic between the green crabs and the sesarma crabs that would plausibly defend the grass.

At select sites Bertness and Coverdale enclosed the two crabs together within a wire cage at a burrow.

After a set period of time they came back to observe the results and always found the same story.

Green crabs won the struggle for the burrows. In fact sesarma crabs survived the tussle only 15 percent of the time.

As a control they caged in other sesarma crabs without green crabs and those sesarma crabs always survived.

Finally they tested whether green crabs had to eat the sesarma crabs to protect the grass

or whether their mere presence had a deterrent effect. They did this by fencing in some sesarma crabs by themselves some with a free roaming green crab (a clear and present danger)

and some with a caged green crab (physically harmless but still plainly evident). Sesarma left alone ate lots of grass in their fenced in area.

Sesarma who faced a free-roaming or a caged green crab both ate far less grass.

In other words the presence of a green crab was as effective a deterrent to sesarma herbivory as actual attacks by green crabs.

Bertness likened the green crabs to scarecrows which model what ecologists have begun recently to account for as non-consumptive effects.

Lay people already call that effect scaring things away. Non-consumptive effects can be much more powerful

because whereas a consumptive effect is one crab eats another crab a non-consumptive effect is one crab scares dozens of crabs Bertness said.

The ecological effect can be much greater much quicker. In two ways therefore the new study provides evidence for two newer views in ecology Bertness said.

The problem for Cape cod is the native purple marsh crab (Sesarma reticulatum) which burrows in the mud along the inner shorelines of the marshes

The unchecked multitudes of purple marsh crabs have taken a visible toll on the developed areas of the Cape.

The purple marsh crabs need tidal creek edge habitat to thrive and do not venture into the inner heart of the marsh where a shorter cordgrass species (the closely related

but squattier Spartina patens) and other high marsh plants dominate The old WPA mosquito ditches also fulfill the crabs'habitat requirements.

Once benign the ditches nucleated dramatic reconstruction of the landscape with the loss of blue crab striped bass and smooth dogfish and the subsequent boom of purple marsh crabs.

#Crabs killing Northeast saltmarshes, study confirmsa marathon summer of field work by Mark Bertness professor of ecology and evolutionary biology and a squadron of students may finally help settle the heated debate about

The winner by far was runaway herbivory of cordgrass by the Sesarma crab. In the other study published in the journal Ecology Letters they directly tested that hypothesis with experiments on Cape cod.

The results were that wherever they protected Sesarma from the pressure of predators the crabs ruthlessly mowed the grasses down.

because overfishing has reduced the predators that would naturally keep the crabs in check. Long-held beliefs that physical forces rather than disrupted food webs are killing the marshes just aren't true Bertness said.

A summer of salt crabs and mudbertness'team included lab manager Caitlin Brisson seniors Matt Bevil and Sinead Crotty and junior Elena Suglia.

and then protected it from all herbivores including the crabs. To assess whether any site had too much nitrogen they took leaves of the grasses at each site back to the lab ground them up

and then stopping every two meters to measure signs of crab damage on 100 cordgrass stalks.

In August they tethered crabs to make them more vulnerable to predators and measured how much predation there was.

Substrate hardness influences crab herbivory by limiting crab burrowing in hard and soft substrates leading to a peak in herbivory in medium hardness substrates where burrows can be constructed easily

but they also implemented a direct test of the Sesarma herbivory hypothesis. They erected cages on some plots that could protect the crabs from predators.
