Circadian rhythmicity has long been documented in crustaceans (De Coursey 1983; Arechiga and Rodriguez-Sosa 1997). It is expressed in physiological functions as diverse as locomotion, sensory input, tegumentary and retinal pigment position, heart rate, blood sugar and calcium concentration. Other time domains, such as tidal (Naylor 1996), circaseptan and seasonal cycles (Rodriguez-Sosa et al. 1997) have also been documented but, as in other animal groups, the 24-h cycle appears to be the basic unit of time computation.
