Journal of Paleontology: EPIBIONT PRESERVATIONAL AND OBSERVATIONAL BIAS IN FOSSIL MARINE DECAPODS (1426 words)
Of these, 10.2 percent of the total number examined exhibited epibionts. In half of the decapod superfamilies studied (Galatheoidea, Cancroidea , Hippoidea, Coenobitoidea, Paguroidea, Nephropidea, Alpheoidea, and Penaeoidea), no epibionts were found. Although we did not have a large enough sample to determine trends in epibiont prevalence among decapod families, it appears that the prevalence was significantly higher in the Majoidea (spider crabs), similar to Becker's (1996) findings.
