Notes on the behavior of Blue Crabs, Callinectes sapidus Rathbun, 1896 feeding on two morphologically dissimilar clams

CRUSTACEANA, 80(7), 779–792.

By: C. Linton*, S. Rebach* & V. Kennedy*

TL;DR: Differences in clam shell morphology and strength imply that softshell clams are more easily fed upon by blue crabs than are rangia clams, and size provides partial protection from blue crab predation. (via Semantic Scholar)

Stable isotope analyses (delta N-15 and delta C-13) of the trophic relationships of Callinectes sapidus in two north Carolina estuaries

ESTUARIES AND COASTS, 30(6), 1049–1059.

By: J. Bucci n, W. Showers n, S. Rebach n, D. DeMaster n & B. Genna n

TL;DR: It is found that blue crab δ13C values increased with salinity from upper to lower regions along both estuaries, and consumers sampled from the upper NRE may be influenced by higher nitrogen input from urban land use and municipal wastewater. (via Semantic Scholar)

A comparison of blue crab and bivalve delta N-15 tissue enrichment in two North Carolina estuaries

Environmental Pollution, 145(1), 299–308.

By: J. Bucci n, S. Rebach n, D. Demaster n & W. Showers n

MeSH headings : Animals; Bivalvia / metabolism; Body Size; Brachyura / metabolism; Corbicula / metabolism; Environmental Monitoring / methods; Fishes / metabolism; Linear Models; Male; Nitrogen Isotopes / analysis; North Carolina; Rivers; Tissue Distribution; Water Pollutants, Chemical / analysis
TL;DR: It is suggested that a relationship may exist between nutrient sources and subsequent energy transfer to estuarine consumers in two North Carolina estuaries and an inverse relationship exists between invertebrate tissue enrichment and indicators of water quality across estuarist sites.

2003 journal article

The effects of interspecific competition and prey odor on foraging behavior in the rock crab, Cancer irroratus (Say)

JOURNAL OF EXPERIMENTAL MARINE BIOLOGY AND ECOLOGY, 287(2), 249–260.

By: J. Salierno*, S. Rebach n & M. Christman*

author keywords: Cancer borealis; Cancer irroratus; competition; foraging behavior; prey odor; permutation test
TL;DR: Rock crabs responded differently to the presence of body odor and tissue extract cues, and elevated behaviors may be associated with foraging for injured and cracked prey or may indicate an area of conspecific feeding. (via Semantic Scholar)
