Ectoplana limuli, a Parasite of the Horseshoe Crab (Tachypleus tridentatus): A New Record in China [PDF]
BiologyThe mortality rate of first- to second-instar horseshoe crabs during molting is extremely high under culture conditions (pH of 7.6 ± 0.1, salinity of 27 ± 2, temperature of 26–32 °C), and we preliminarily speculate that it is related to disease. Our team
