Status of freshwater prawn farming: a review
Farmed freshwater prawn production globally expanded by a factor of 3.5 in the 7 years from 1984 to 1991 but declined by 17% to 31 235 tin 1992. This was caused by a 53% reduction in the output of Taiwan due to disease and in-breeding problems, partially compensated by increases elsewhere, notably in India and Vietnam. This paper reviews the scientific

Investigating relationships among strontium, barium, and seasonality in wild baboons
Abstract Geochemical profiles of Australopithecus africanus and baboon teeth show fluctuating trace elements, possibly reflecting seasonal diets. Here we use laser ablation–inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometric measurements of calcium‐normalized strontium and barium ratios (Sr/Ca and Ba/Ca) and ion microprobe analyses of oxygen isotopes (δ18O ...

Are the Heavy Metals Cadmium and Zinc Regulated in Freshwater Prawns?
In the present study, an attempt to assess the heavy metal (Cd and Zn) regulating ability of the commercially important freshwater prawn Macrobrachium malcolmsonii (Milne Edwards) was made by exposing it to a range of dissolved concentrations of Cd and Zn for 22 days.

ABSTRACT This study investigated shape variations and morphological integration between the components of crusher and cutter claws in two species of swimming crabs, Callinectes danae and Callinectes ornatus. The propodi and dactyli of the claws were analysed in males and females of both species, using geometric morphometric techniques to identify ...

ABSTRACT Weapons are morphological structures used by animals in various contexts, especially in intra‐specific contests and visual displays. In snapping shrimps of the genus Alpheus, particularly the monogamous species Alpheus brasileiro, both sexes bear enlarged chelipeds, potentially conferring advantages in mate competition or territorial defence ...
