Shallow-water anomuran and brachyuran crabs (Crustacea: Decapoda) from southern Bahia, Brazi l

The objective of this study was to determine the taxonomic composition and ecological aspects of decapods crustacean species belonging to the infraorders Anomura and Brachyura in shallow marine and estuarine waters from southern Bahia, a coastline about 640 km in extent, corresponding to approximate...
