| English abstract | This work presents the crustaceans found associated to galleries built by mangrove crab Ucides cordatus (Linnaeus, 1763) in Pinheiro’s river mangrove, Paraná State. Bimonthly samples from the galleries substrate were obtained, separated and identified. Five species were found: Uca thayeri Rathbun, 1900, Uca uruguayensis Nobili, 1901, Metasesarma rubripes(Rathbun, 1897), Eurytium limosum (Say, 1818) and Sinelobus stanfordi (Richardson, 1901). Higher density values were observed in autumn and winter and lower values in Spring and Summer. The lower number of S. stanfordi individuals found on muddy substrate out of the galeries indicates an attraction of this species for the galleries |
