Winning the biodiversity arms race among freshwater gastropods: competition and coexistence through shell variability and predator avoidance (2010, background): “Their larvae drift downstream back to brackish waters and molt into post-larvae to complete their complex life cycle (Murphy & Austin, 2005; Kikkert et al., 2009; Monti & Legendre, 2009).”
Global diversity of shrimps (Crustacea: Decapoda: Caridea) in freshwater (2007, background): “This study clearly highlighted the non-monophyletic status of many of the palaemonid genera, recently also suggested by genetic work (Murphy & Austin, 2005).”
Contributions of larval biology to crustacean research: a review (2006, background): “…size, strongly abbreviated modes of larval development, and complete lecithotrophy have evolved repeatedly and independently in palaemonid shrimps living in freshwater habitats, mostly in South and Central America, Asia, and Australia (for recent review, see Bauer, 2004; Murphy and Austin, 2005).”
Molecular Systematics of the Freshwater Prawn Genus Macrobrachium Bate, 1868 (Crustacea: Decapoda: Palaemonidae) Inferred from mtDNA Sequences, with Emphasis on East Asian Species (2007, background): “Macrobrachium fauna on various continents (or regions), like Central and South America, East Asia, the Indo-West Pacific, and India (Fig. 2), are suggested, supporting the results of Murphy and Austin (2005) .”
