• Lack of population structure in the fiddler crab Uca annulipes along an East African latitudinal gradient: genetic and morphometric evidence (2010, background): “Female Wddler crabs have two small chelipeds used in food gathering and sorting, while males have a small minor claw used for feeding, that resembles those of the females, and a large major claw used for display and male–male agonistic interactions ( Rosenberg 1997, 2002 ).”
• Analyzing Fluctuating Asymmetry with Geometric Morphometrics: Concepts, Methods, and Applications (2015, background): “This separation of major and minor claw shapes also holds in a separate analysis at the evolutionary level, comparing species averages of claw shapes across the genus [182].”
