Reproductive performance in Cyrtograpsus angulatus and Cyrtograpsus altimanus (Brachyura, Varunidae) from Jabalí Island, Argentina

The reproductive performance of two Varunidae crabs, Cyrtograpsus angulatus and C. altimanus from Jabalí Island (40°32′S, 62°15′W), Argentina, were compared. The following reproductive variables were measured in the laboratory for lixed females of each species: realized fecundity (number of eggs/fem...

The following reproductive variables were measured in the laboratory for lixed females of each species: realized fecundity (number of eggs/female): EW: egg dry weight (egg dry weight/number of eggs); RO: reproductive output (egg dry weight/female dry weight); RF: relative fecundity (number of eggs by female/female dry weight); and RSOM (relative size at the onset of maturity).
