## Abstract The dimorphic claws of the Californian snapping shrimp, __Alpheus californiensis__, contain an opener and a closer muscle. The closer muscle in the smaller pincer claw is composed of fibers with short and intermediate sarcomere lengths, whereas the closer muscle in the larger snapper cl

Marine shrimp of the genus Alpheus exhibit a remarkable reversal of asymmetry in their great claws. This unique phenomenon includes transition of the closer muscle in one claw from a muscle of mixed fiber type into a homogeneous slow muscle. We have developed monoclonal antibodies that specifically

The asymmetric claws of Californian snapping shrimp (Alpheus californiensis) are comprised of a smaller pincer claw and a larger snapper claw. The present paper describes the morphology of the single closer muscle and the facilitation properties of an excitatory motor axon for both claws. In the sna

## Abstract Muscle fiber types were examined in lobsters using sarcomere length measurements. In the adult, the slender cutter claw was comprised of fast and slow fibers, while the broader crusher contained only slow fibers. In the juvenile lobster, both the cutter and crusher contained fast and sl
