	Anomura - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Anomura (sometimes Anomala) are a group of decapod crustaceans, including hermit crabs and others.
		Although the names of many anomurans includes the word crab, all true crabs are in the sister group to the Anomura, the Brachyura (the two groups together form the clade Meiura).
		The name Anomura derives from an old classification in which reptant decapods were divided into Macrura (long-tailed), Brachyura (short-tailed) and Anomura (differently-tailed).

	Crab - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The term crab is often applied to several different groups of short (nose to tail) decapod crustaceans with thick exoskeletons, but only members of the Brachyura are true crabs.
		Other taxa, such as hermit crabs, porcelain crabs, king crabs, and horseshoe crabs are, despite superficial similarities, not crabs at all; rather, they belong to the Anomura and can be distinguished from true crabs by counting the legs.
		In Anomura, the last pair of pereiopods (walking legs) is hidden inside the carapace, so only four pairs are visible (counting the claws), whereas uninjured true crabs always have five visible pairs.

		The Brachyura, or true crabs, are distinguished from the longtailed lobsters and shrimps which form the order Macrura, by the fact that the abdomen or tail is of small size and is carried folded up under the body.
		Many of the larger crabs are sought for as food by man. The most important and valuable are the edible crab of British and European coasts (Cancer pa gurus) and the blue crab of the Atlantic coast of the United States (Callinectes sapidus).
		Among the Anomura, the best known are the hermit-crabs, which live in the empty shells of Gasteropod Mollusca, which they carry about with them as portable dwellings.

		A phylogenetic analysis of selected anomuran, thalassinidean, and other decapod crustacean taxa, based on spermatozoal ultrastructural characters and spermatophore morphological characters, was performed and the following relationships of the taxa are elucidated from the trees produced.
		The Anomura are not a monophyletic assemblage, with the lomoid Lomis being exclusive of the remainder of the anomuran taxa, and the thalassinid Thalassina included in the anomuran clade.

		This project is being done in collaboration with Dr. Clifford Cunningham, a molecular systematist at Duke University.
		Unfortunately, the lack of a reliable phylogenetic history for the group has made it impossible to resolve long-standing questions concerning the evolution of shell use, asymmetry and carcinization in hermit crabs.
		Our research integrates extensive morphological and molecular data to generate a robust phylogeny for the hermit crabs and their allies (i.e., the Anomura).

		Among the species of galatheids that occur in the southwestern Atlantic and coastal waters of Tierra del Fuego, Munida subrugosa (Decapoda: Anomura) is the most abundant one, especially in the Beagle Channel (55ºS, 68ºW).
		Galatheids have several commercial applications, and M. subrugosa could be of local and regional interest.
