Abstract
âºA parasitic pea crab detects its host species using olfactory cues. âºThe crabs are more attracted by the host where the entire life cycle is fulfilled. âºThis differential attraction is lost if crabs are coming from the secondary host. âºSuch differences may explain the known asymmetric exploitation of these two hosts.
