Myo-inositol accelerates the metamorphosis from megalopa to crablet of Scylla paramamosain by modulating cuticle decomposition and reconstruction

Aquaculture and Fisheries, 2023
The mud crab Scylla paramamosain is a key species in China due to its high nutritional value and great economic worth and has grown in popularity. Myo-inositol can modulate versatile physiological functions in aquatic animals.

Key For The Identification Of Mediterranean Brachyuran Megalopae

Mediterranean Marine Science, 2004
Based on larval literature, an identification key has been constructed for the megalopae of 55 species of Mediterranean Brachyura. This key is based mainly on external morphological characteristics visible, by using a microscope, limiting the necessity for dissection of specimens.

Leg disposition in the brachyuran megalopa when swimming [PDF]

Journal of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom, 1954
SummaryMany brachyuran megalopae swim with the legs disposed in a curious manner. The chelipeds and first two pairs of walking legs are folded tightly beneath the body, while the two posterior pairs are wrapped over the dorsum, the third pair being stretched out anteriorly, the dactylus, according to its length, touching or being looped round the eye ...

Effects of water-borne copper on the survival, antioxidant status, metallothionein-I mRNA expression and physiological responses of the Chinese mitten crab, Eriocheir sinensis (Decapoda: Brachyura) larvae

Scientia Marina, 2014
The lethal concentration of water-borne copper in Chinese mitten crab Eriocheir sinensis larvae was tested by exposing the animals to 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.5 and 0.8 mg Cu L-1 at 20°C for 96 h.

The larval development of Pilumnoides hassleri (Decapoda: Brachyura: Pilumnoididae) reared in the laboratory, with a review of pilumnoidid systematics using larval characters

Scientia Marina, 2010
The genus Pilumnoides is an interesting taxon because its systematic position, based on adult characters, remains unclear. These xanthoid crabs have been related to the Carpiliidae, Goneplacidae and Eriphioidea. P. hassleri A.

Facultative secondary lecithotrophy in the megalopa of the shrimp Lysmata seticaudata (Risso, 1816) (Decapoda : Hippolytidae) under laboratory conditions [PDF]

, 2007
Certain decapod crustaceans can catabolize internal reserves to undergo partial or full larval development. This feature is termed secondary lecithotrophy, if energy used results from plankton derived organic matter accumulated Ig earlier larval stages ...
