Range extensions along western Atlantic for Epialtidae crabs (Brachyura, Majoidea) genera Acanthonyx Latreille, 1828 and Epialtus H. Milne Edwards, 1834

The present study provided information extending the known geographical distribution of three species of majoid crabs, the epialtids Acanthonyx dissimulatus Coelho, 1993, Epialtus bituberculatus H. Milne Edwards, 1834, and E. brasiliensis Dana, 1852. Specimens of both genera from different carcinological collections were studied by comparing morphological characters. We provide new data that extends the geographical distributions of E. bituberculatus to the coast of the states of Paraná and Santa Catarina (Brazil), and offer new records from Belize and Costa Rica. Epialtus brasiliensis is recorded for the first time in the state of Rio Grande do Sul (Brazil), and A. dissimulatus is reported from Quintana Roo, Mexico. The distribution of A. dissimulatus, previously known as endemic to Brazil, has a gap between the states of Espírito Santo and Rio de Janeiro. However, this restricted southern distribution is herein amplified by the Mexican specimens.

Comportamiento de "Osilinus atratus" (Wood, 1828) ante diferentes sustratos rocosos

[ES] Se estudia el comportamiento del burgado (Osilinus atratus) ante diferentes tipos de sustratos rocosos, tanto en color como en tamaño. Los individuos muestran cierta tendencia a permanecer sobre sustratos de color gris-verdoso, sobre piedras de basalto-fonolitas, muy similares a los colores que abundan en las conchas de esta especie. Igualmente, evitan permanecer sobre sedimentos de pequeña granulometría, incrementándose el tiempo de permanencia cuanto mayor es el grano del sedimento.
