The morphological transformation of hermit crabs into crab‐like king crabs in the evolution of decapod crustaceans represents a remarkable case of carcinization or evolutionary shaping into a crab‐like form. In this study, we focus on internal organs such as the hemolymph vascular system and adjacent anatomical structures of several Recent hermit crab (Paguridae) and king crab (Lithodidae) species...
Cover illustration. The morphological transformation of hermit crabs into king crabs represents one of the evolutionary most fascinating scenarios in decapod evolution. It is certainly the most remarkable case of carcinization, or evolutionary shaping into a crab‐like form. In this issue of the Journal of Morphology Keiler and coauthors (pp. 759–778) investigate the hemolymph vascular system and adjacent...
