Abstract: ABSTRACT. Growth comparison between Callinectes sapidus (Crustacea, Decapoda, Portunidae) collected on the field and maintained under controlled conditions. The absence of hard structures which register age on crustaceans requires the use of lengthbased methods for age determination, and modal progression analysis (MPA) to estimate growth. In this paper, individual growth of the blue crab Callinectes sapidus Rathbun, 1896 was studied in the laboratory and in the field, and the growth curves estimated were comp… Show more

“…This species is sympatric with C. danae and attains a greater CW (16.2 cm, according to Rodrigues and D´Incao, 2008). Thus, the minimum CW for C. danae can be lower than 12.0 cm, but the fisherman must be skilled to distinguish between the two species of swimming crabs.…”

“…A hypothesis for the difference between the increase per molt of wild and reared C. danae individuals could be that that the reared individuals were subjected to space limitations, reproductive activity restrictions and contacts with other specimens. In addition, Rodrigues and D'Incao () mentioned that older reared crabs were smaller due to the stress suffered by captivity; Luppi et al. () reported that growth curves for reared individuals yielded an underestimation of the actual maximum size of Chasmagnathus granulatus ; and González‐Gurriarán et al.…”

“…Nauplius, 29: e2021001 discussion Maximum longevity was estimated at 3.5 years. At first, this estimate could be considered high as larger brachyurans living in the same estuary have lower maximum longevities (Neohelice granulata (Dana, 1851), 2 years, maximum CW 38 and 27.2 mm for males and females); Callinectes sapidus Rathbun, 1896, 3 years, maximum CW 136.30 and 132.70 mm for males and females) (D'Incao et al, 1993;Rodrigues and D'Incao, 2008). The average lifespan of brachyurans was estimated at 5.6 years, with a general trend of the largest species having the longest life spans, while the smallest species have lifespans between one and two years (Vogt, 2019), which suggests R. harrisii has indeed a longer maximum longevity than expected.…”

“…The pink shrimp Farfantepenaeus paulensis (Pérez Farfante, 1967) and the blue crab Callinectes sapidus Rathbun, 1896 are estuarine during part of their life cycle, i.e., post-larvae and juvenile pink shrimp and the stages of zoea, megalopa, juvenile and adult of the blue crab (Hines et al, 1987;Bulger et al, 1995;D'Incao, 1991;Costa et al, 2008;Rodrigues and D'Incao, 2008;Vieira and Calazans, 2010;Rodrigues and D'Incao, 2014). The entry of these organisms into estuaries follows the patterns observed in other species of penaeids and also blue crabs from other coastal regions (D'Incao, 1991;Lhomme, 1992;Bulger et al, 1995;Epifanio, 2007;Cházaro-Olvera et al, 2009).…”

“…É uma espécie eurialina hiperosmorreguladora que habita os estuários e regiões oceânicas adjacentes em fundos lamosos e arenosos, sendo mais frequentemente encontrados em até 35 m de profundidade (WilliamS, 1974). A longevidade do siri-azul na Lagoa dos Patos foi estimada em 3,45 anos (fêmeas) e 3,50 anos (machos) (roDrigueS & D'incao, 2008). De acordo com WilliamS (1984), os indivíduos realizam de 18 a 22 mudas durante a vida.…”
