Resumo: | Heterochely varies intensively among different species of decapod crustaceans, and this trait may be of help in sex differentiation. The aim of the present study was to determine the occurrence of heterochelly between males and females of Eriphia gonagra and between animals of the same sex, as well as to characterize the shape of teeth of the chela. Specimens were collected from January to December 1993 and a total of 465 animals were measured. There was a predominance of larger right chelae, most of which presented molariform teeth. Crabs are considered to be the major predators of molluscs, and it may be supposed that the handedness occurs because most of the shells of marine gastropods are dextrogerous. This heterochely condition coincides with the pattern detected in other Xanthidae species and differs from most Brachyura families. |

O objetivo do presente estudo é determinar a ocorrência de heteroquelia para E. gonagra entre machos e fêmeas e também em animais do mesmo sexo, além da caracterização quanto a forma dos dentes da quela. Os indivíduos foram coletados no período de janeiro a dezembro de 1993; foram mensurados 465 animais nos quais ocorreu um predomínio da quela direita maior, a grande maioria com dentes molariformes. Os carangueijos são considerados os maiores predadores de moluscos, supondo-se que o "uso das mãos" ocorra pelo fato da maioria das conchas de gastrópodos marinhos serem dextrógiras. Tal condição de heteroquelia, coincide com o padrão encontrado nas espécies de Xanthidae, diferindo da maioria das outras famílias de Brachyura.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina1998-01-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/biotemas/article/view/21931Biotemas; v. 11 n. 1 (1998); 71-802175-79250103-1643reponame:Biotemas (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/biotemas/article/view/21931/19892Copyright (c) 1998 João Marcos de Góes, Adilson Fransozohttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessGóes, João Marcos deFransozo, Adilson2022-11-18T13:10:47Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/21931Revistahttp://www.biotemas.ufsc.br/index.htmPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/biotemas/oai||carlospinto@ccb.ufsc.br2175-79250103-1643opendoar:2022-11-18T13:10:47Biotemas (Online) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)false |
