    Beschreibung: Environmental fluctuations can impose energetic constraints on organisms in terms of food shortage or compensation for metabolic stress. To better understand the biochemical strategies that support adaptive physiological processes in variable environments, we studied the lipid dynamics of the brown shrimp Crangon crangon and the pink shrimp Pandalus montagui by analysing their midgut glands during an annual cycle. Both species have an overlapping distribu- tion range in the southern North Sea, but differ in their habitat preferences, reproductive strate- gies, and life-history traits. C. crangon showed minor total lipid accumulation in their midgut glands, ranging between 14 and 17% of dry mass (DM), dominated by phospholipids. In contrast, P. montagui stored significantly larger amounts of total lipid (47−70% DM, mainly triacylglycer- ols) and showed a distinct seasonal cycle in lipid accumulation with a maximum in summer. Fatty acid trophic markers indicated a wide food spectrum for both species, with higher preferences of P. montagui for microalgae. In C. crangon, feeding preferences were less distinct due the low total lipid levels in the midgut gland. PCA based on fatty acid compositions of both species suggested that C. crangon has a broader dietary spectrum than P. montagui. C. crangon seems to have the capacity to use sufficient energy directly from ingested food to fuel all metabolic requirements, including multiple spawnings, without building up large lipid reserves in the midgut gland. P. montagui, in contrast, relies more on the energy storage function of the midgut gland to over- come food scarcity and to allocate lipids for reproduction.

    Beschreibung: The brown shrimp Crangon crangon is a key component of the North Atlantic coastal food web and an important target species for the fishery economy. As the brown shrimp contains large amounts of protein and essential fatty acids, its consumption makes it a beneficial choice for humans. Commercially harvested crustaceans like C. crangon are frequently affected by bacterial shell disease, with necrotizing erosions and ulcerations of the cuticle. To determine whether shell disease influences the nutritional value of C. crangon, total protein and lipid contents, as well as fatty acid compositions of muscle tissue and hepatopancreas, together with the hepatosomatic index, were examined in healthy and affected individuals. The biochemical composition of the tissues did not differ significantly between the 2 groups. Also, the hepatosomatic index, as an indicator of energy reserves in shrimps, was similar between healthy and affected animals. Our results indicate that the nutritional value of C. crangon is not affected by shell disease, as long as it remains superficial as in the present study.

    Beschreibung: The Asian shore crab Hemigrapsus sanguineus (De Haan, 1853) has recently established populations in the North Sea and now occurs within the native ranges of the green crab Carcinus maenas (Linnaeus, 1758). To determine potential competitive effects and to assess the progress of the invasion, species-specific population characteristics (numerical abundances, biomasses, and size distributions) of the two species around the island of Helgoland (German Bight, southern North Sea) were compared for surveys conducted in 2009 and 2014. Sampling sites were chosen based on accessibility and differed in their topography and wave exposure, which allowed testing for the influence of these factors on the establishment success of H. sanguineus. The numerical abundance and biomass of H. sanguineus increased markedly and approached those of C. maenas in 2014. At a sheltered site, H. sanguineus even outnumbered C. maenas, whereas the converse was observed at a site exposed to strong winds and waves. Although such contrasting abundance patterns between the native and the introduced shore crab may be the result of direct interference, the dominance of H. sanguineus at the sheltered site may also be explained by enhanced larval settling rates caused by odors of conspecifics. The results suggest that the invasion of H. sanguineus has not yet reached its equilibrium, and population abundances in the North Sea are expected to further increase in the future.

    Beschreibung: The invasive Asian shore crab Hemigrapsus sanguineus and the native European green crab Carcinus maenas share intertidal habitats along European North Atlantic shores and may compete for food. We evaluated the energy-storing capacities of the 2 species and determined their dietary preferences by means of lipid analysis and fatty acid trophic marker indices. Specimens of both sexes and various sizes were sampled in the rocky intertidal of the island of Helgoland (North Sea) in April, June, August, and October 2015. Total lipids of the midgut glands were significantly higher in H. sanguineus than in C. maenas and followed a distinct seasonal cycle in both sexes (ca. 20−50% of dry mass, DM). The lower lipid contents of C. maenas (ca. 20% of DM) remained at a similar level throughout the seasons. The seasonal differences in the females of H. sanguineus may be due to higher reproductive output and, consequently, lipid turnover, but remain unexplained in males. Trophic indices for Bacillariophyceae, Chlorophyta, and especially Phaeophyceae were higher in H. sanguineus than in C. maenas, suggesting a higher degree of herbivory of the invader. In contrast, the Rhodophyta index was higher in C. maenas. Thus, competition for food between the 2 species will probably be low in habitats rich in macroalgae. The ability of H. sanguineus to utilize mainly energy-poor algae but accumulate high-energy reserves may be an advantage for successfully establishing persistent populations in new habitats.

    Beschreibung: Hemigrapsus sanguineus, the Asian shore crab, is a successful invader at the U.S. east coast and the European Atlantic coast, where populations are established from France to Germany. Numerous studies on behavioral aspects and population development are available, however, physiology and energetic impact of the invader on its ecosystem are virtually unknown. We measured respiration rates of H. sanguineus and its native equivalent, the European shore crab C. maenas, from the island of Helgoland, North Sea, Germany. Measurements were conducted at 5, 10, 15 and 20 °C, using a flow-through system. Specific respiration rates were overall similar for both species. Rates increased with temperature and decreased with the mass of the crab. Mass-standardized data revealed that small H. sanguineus showed significantly higher respiration rates at higher temperatures than C. maenas. This difference vanished with increasing crab size. Statistical modelling was used to develop species-specific equations to calculate a crab´s respiration rate in relation to its mass and the ambient temperature. Taking the overall biomass and temperature into account, the population respiration, carbon uptake and the metabolic energy demand, a measure for the population´s ecosystem impact, was calculated. In the Helgoland intertidal, total biomass of H. sanguineus is now about 59% of that of the C. maenas population but the cumulative metabolic energy demand represents already 78% of the value for C. maenas. With still increasing abundances of H. sanguineus and globally rising temperatures, the ecosystem impact of this invader will increase in the future.

    Beschreibung: The physiology of the successful intertidal invader, the Asian shore crab Hemigrapsus sanguineus, is essentially unknown. It is quite abundant from France to German coasts but information on food preferences, energy storage and breeding strategy are still lacking. Hemigrapsus sanguineus and its native ecological equivalent, the European green crab Carcinus maenas, were collected in April, June, August and October 2016 in the intertidal area of the island of Helgoland, North Sea, Germany. Midgut glands were dissected and in case of ovigerous females, additionally the egg masses were sampled. Lipids were extracted and the fatty acid composition was determined by gas chromatography. The lipid contents of H. sanguineus midgut glands was higher and more variable over the seasons than those of C. maenas (20 - 60% vs. ~20%, respectively). Trophic marker fatty acids revealed a more herbivorous diet of H. sanguineus, whereas C. maenas profiles suggested a wide range from more herbivorous to more carnivorous diets. The fatty acid compositions of eggs and midgut glands formed two separate clusters in H. sanguineus but both tissue types were similar in C. maenas. Hemigrapsus sanguineus stored much more energy than C. maenas and may cope better with longer periods of starvation. The invaders were able to build up and maintain these reserves by utilizing mostly low quality algal food. Further, H. sanguineus is an income breeder, utilizing recently eaten food for reproduction, whereas C. maenas is a capital breeder. The physiological properties suggest that the invader is competitively superior over the native crab.
