Morphological and molecular characterization of a new species of Fredius (Decapoda, Pseudothelphusidae) from Rondônia, southern Amazonia, BrazilDescription of a new freshwater crab species of the genus Potamon (Decapoda, Brachyura, Potamidae) from Iran, based on morphological and genetic characters; A new species of Isolapotamon Bott, 1968 (Decapoda, Brachyura, Potamidae) from Mindanao, with notes on the Philippine Isolapotamon species
New occurrence of Miocene freshwater crabs (Brachyura, Potamidae) in the North Alpine Foreland Basin, Germany, with a note on fossil Potamon to calibrate molecular clocksDifferentiation within a river system: ecology or geography driven? Evolutionary significant units and new species in Jamaican freshwater crabs; The Aeglidae of Uruguay (Decapoda, Anomura), with the description of a new species of Aegla; Atyid shrimps of Hainan Island, southern China, with the description of a new species of Caridina (Crustacea, Decapoda, Atyidae)
On the presumed phylogenetic position of the Xiphocarididae (Decapoda, Caridea) based on the larval morphology of Xiphocaris elongataDiversity and distribution of Australian freshwater crayfish with a check-list of the world Parastacidae and a key to the genera (Decapoda, Astacidea, Parastacoidea); The freshwater crayfish fauna of Australia: update on conservation status and threats
Summary Advances in Freshwater Decapod Systematics and Biology presents papers on taxonomy, phylogenetics, biogeography, life history, and conservation on freshwater crabs, anomurans, prawns, and crayfish. These reflect current research, and are primers for future work and more integrative decapod research
