Dominance and effects of strange conspecifics on aggressive interactions in the hermit crab Pagurus longicarpus (say)
M L Winston et al. Anim Behav. 1978 Feb.
Abstract
Dominance orders in the hermit crab Pagurus longicarpus were observed in the laboratory. Groups of four crabs formed loose dominance hierarchies as determined by repeated display and retreat behaviour. Stronger dominance orders were inversely correlated with the frequency of aggressive interactions. Recognition of individuals, as measured by frequency and intensity of aggressive encounters between familiar crabs and introduced strangers, was not important in maintaining dominance orders. Rather, P. longicarpus recognized the aggressive state of conspecifics, as shown by frequencies of aggressive encounters after individuals of different dominance rankings were exchanged between established hierarchies.
