Sexual selection generally promotes the development of or naments or weapons that improve an individual's chance of mating. The squat lobster Munida rugosa exhibits a range of vari- ation in chela (claw) morphology, with some individuals having a particular arched chela morpho- logy, apparently specialized as a weapon. Geometric morphometric techniques were used to com- pare chela morphology across a wide size range and between sexes. The most fully developed arched morphology only occurred in large males, although not all large males possessed an arched claw, while smaller males retained straight, slender claws. Some large females exhibited a reduced version of the arched morphology. The pattern of occurrence of the arched morphology suggests that it is, or has been, subject to sexual selection through male-male competition for mates.
