Abstrakt: | Decapods occupy all aquatic, and terrestrial and semi-terrestrial environments. According to their osmoregulatory capacity, they can be osmoconformers or osmoregulators (hypo or hyperegulators). The goal of this study is to gather data available in the literature for aquatic decapods and verify if the rare hyporegulatory capacity of decapods is associated with hyper-regulatory capacity. The metric used to quantify osmoregulation was the osmotic capacity (OC), the gradient between external and internal (hemolymph) osmolalities. We employ phylogenetic comparative methods using 83 species of decapods to test the correlation between hyper OC and hypo OC, beyond the ancestral state for osmolality habitat, which was used to reconstruct the colonization route. Our analysis showed a phylogenetic signal for habitat osmolality, hyper OC and hypo OC, suggesting that hyper-hyporegulators decapods occupy similar habitats and show similar hyper and hyporegulatory capacities. Our findings reveal that all hyper-hyporegulators decapods (mainly shrimps and crabs) originated in estuarine waters. Hyper OC and hypo OC are correlated in decapods, suggesting correlated evolution. The analysis showed that species which inhabit environments with intense salinity variation such as estuaries, supratidal and mangrove habitats, all undergo selective pressure to acquire efficient hyper-hyporegulatory mechanisms, aided by low permeabilities. Therefore, hyporegulation can be observed in any colonization route that passes through environments with extreme variations in salinity, such as estuaries or brackish water.
