Kiwa is a genus of marine decapods living at deep-sea hydrothermal vents and cold seeps. The animals are commonly referred to as "yeti lobsters" or "yeti crabs", after the legendary yeti, because of their "hairy" or bristly appearance. The genus is placed in its own family, Kiwaidae, in the superfamily Chirostyloidea. The genus Kiwa is named after "the goddess of the shellfish in the Polynesian mythology".

  • Kiwa ist eine Gattung mariner Zehnfußkrebse. Wegen der außerordentlichen Behaarung der Chelipeden und der Schreitbeine werden die Tiere allgemein als „Yeti-Krabben“ bezeichnet, nach dem legendären Fabelwesen Yeti. Die Gattung wird in eine eigene Familie, Kiwaidae, in der Überfamilie Chirostyloidea gestellt. Der Gattungsname Kiwa bezieht sich auf die polynesische Göttin der Krebstiere, . (de)
  • Kiwa is a genus of marine decapods living at deep-sea hydrothermal vents and cold seeps. The animals are commonly referred to as "yeti lobsters" or "yeti crabs", after the legendary yeti, because of their "hairy" or bristly appearance. The genus is placed in its own family, Kiwaidae, in the superfamily Chirostyloidea. Five species have been described: Kiwa hirsuta discovered in 2005 on the Pacific-Antarctic Ridge, Kiwa puravida discovered in 2006 at cold seeps in the East Pacific (all other species are from hydrothermal vents), Kiwa tyleri, known colloquially as the "Hoff crab", from the East Scotia Ridge, and from the Australian-Antarctic Ridge. Two similar but undescribed species are known from vents on the South West Indian Ridge and at the Galápagos respectively. Analysis of DNA has confirmed the distinction of the species, them having diverged from each other millions of years ago. The third undescribed species of Kiwa was discovered in 2010 in the Atlantic sector of the Southern Ocean at vents on the East Scotia Ridge. Compared with the first two species, it has proportionally much shorter chelae, with the majority of the bacteria-growing setae concentrated on the ventral carapace. Based on the presence of sulphur-oxidising bacteria on the setae of both K. hirsuta and the new South West Indian Ridge species, they may both feed on bacteria in addition to scavenging. For K. puravida, the bacteria have been identified and the feeding behaviour observed, as well as a cyclical rhythmic motion of the crab documented that is suspected to increase the flow of methane and sulfide, the bacterial food, towards the bacteria. The two sexes of the new South West Indian Ridge species prefer different temperatures, with males seeming to prefer warmer water and egg-carrying females and juveniles preferring the coldest. The genus Kiwa is named after "the goddess of the shellfish in the Polynesian mythology". (en)
  • Kiwa est un genre de crustacés de la famille des découvert en 2006 et qui regroupe des galathées dites « crabes yétis » vivant dans les abysses. Elles possèdent des pilosités sur les pattes antérieures dans lesquelles elles élèvent des bactéries desquelles elles se nourrissent. Afin de pouvoir cultiver ces bactéries, les espèces de ce genre exécutent une danse décrite comme « comique » par ses découvreurs. Ce genre comporte trois espèces : * Kiwa hirsuta, des fumeurs noirs du Pacifique * Kiwa puravida, des suintements froids au large du Costa Rica, et * Kiwa tyleri, vivant également dans les fumeurs noirs, seule espèce connue en Antarctique, et qui présente la particularité de former d'importantes colonies. Une quatrième espèce, non encore décrite, morphologiquement proche de Kiwa tyleri, a été observée à proximité des dorsales de l'océan Indien (fr)
  • 키와속(Kiwa)은 심해의 열수 분출공과 에서 사는 해양 십각류 속이다. 이 갑각류는 흔히 "설인게"(雪人-)로 부르기도 한다. 키와상과(Kiwaoidea), 키와과(Kiwaidae)의 유일속으로 분류하고 있다. 2종이 기술되어 있으며, 한 종은 2005년에 발견한 키와 히르수타(Kiwa hirsuta)이며, 나머지 한 종은 2006년에 발견한 키와 푸라비다(Kiwa puravida)이다. 세 번째 종은 호프게(Hoff crab)로 알려져 있으며, 스코샤해의 동스코샤 릿지에서 발견되었지만, 현재까지는 미기록종이다. 그러나 미토콘드리아 DNA와 핵 리보솜 RNA 분석 결과에 의하면, 이 종은 키와 히르수타와 유전적으로 구별된다.
