• New anatomical information on Anomalocaris from the Cambrian Emu Bay Shale of South Australia and a reassessment of its inferred predatory habits (2013, background): “In some modern arthropods such as Limulus, the nonmineralized (chitinous) gnathobases are capable of crushing clam shells (Botton 1984; Shuster et al. 2003), and Sidneyia from the Burgess Shale, which has unmineralized gnathobasic limbs, has been found with trilobite fragments in its alimentary…”
• Status of the red knot (Calidris canutus rufa) in the western hemisphere (2008, background): “Crabs do not breed until 9-11 years of age (Shuster et al. 2003), and thus measures already taken or even a complete cessation of all further harvest, may not be reflected by an increase in the breeding population of horseshoe crabs for several years.”
