Three undescribed species of Eisig, 1887 were collected from intertidal to sublittoral habitats in western and southern waters of Korea. sp. nov. is distinguishable from other congeners by the presence of hemispheric notopodial lobes in the posterior abdomen. sp. nov. closely resembles Yabe & Mawatari, 1998 in the absence of posteriorly extended abdominal notopodial lobes, but differs in the absence of eyespots on the prostomium and distinct node on the shaft of thoracic hooks in . sp. nov. is similar to sensu Hutchings & Rainer, 1982 in the shape of abdominal notopodia, but clearly differs in dentition of the abdominal hooks and methylene green staining pattern (MGSP). DNA sequences (mtCOI and histone H3) of these new Korean species were compared with all sequences of species available in the public database. Molecular results showed distinct genetic differences among these three new Korean species at species level. Comparison of mtCOI gene revealed significant genetic difference between and these Korean species. A comprehensive comparison between three species of present study and their closely related congeners is conducted based on morphological and genetic results.

Article Synopsis
  • The red king crab and Japanese mitten crab are important for both their nutritional value and ecological research.
  • A study focused on the changes in lipid profiles during the crabs' embryonic and larval stages, highlighting how triacylglycerols disappeared in early larvae but reappeared later with different compositions.
  • The research revealed species-specific demands for polyunsaturated fatty acids, which could guide better diet selection in aquaculture practices.

Objective: To explore the genotype-phenotype correlation in a Charcot-Marie-Tooth type 2A2A (CMT2A2A) pedigree and to provide genetic counseling for its subsequent pregnancies.

Methods: A Chinese pedigree presenting with "lower limb muscle atrophy and movement disorders" at the Prenatal Diagnosis Center of Xuzhou Central Hospital between January and August 2024 was selected as the study subject. Relevant clinical data were collected from the pedigree members.
