Geographic Distribution and Life History Aspects of the Freshwater Shrimps, Macrobranchium ohione and Palaemonetes kadiakensis (Decapoda: Palaemonidae), in Arkansas [PDF]
Two species of shrimps occur in Arkansas; they include the Ohio shrimp, Macrobrachium ohione (Smith) and the Mississippi grass shrimp, Palaemonetes kadiakensis Rathbun. The present survey is based on collections made between 1974 and 2008 with additional

Embryonic Coat of the Grass Shrimp Palaemonetes pugio
The embryo of the grass shrimp, Palaemonetes pugio, is surrounded during development by a protective extracellular coat designated as the embryonic coat (EC). At hatching, this EC is composed of four embryonic envelopes (EE), each of which is composed of multiple layers.

Grazing and predation of the grass shrimp Palaemonetes pugio1 [PDF]
Abstract The ghost shrimp, Palaemonetes pugio, is a common estuarine member of the food chain. It is widely used in bioassay testing by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Culture techniques for the ghost shrimp have been established for more than 10 years.

Functional response metrics explain and predict high but differing ecological impacts of juvenile and adult lionfish [PDF]
Recent accumulation of evidence across taxa indicates that the ecological impacts of invasive alien species are predictable from their functional response (FR; e.g.

Ontogeny of osmoregulation in the palaemonid shrimp Palaemonetes argentinus (Crustacea:Decapoda) [PDF]
Osmoregulation was studied in the zoeal stages I and VI, the first decapodid, the first juvenile, and in adults of the palaemonid shrimp Palaemonetes argentinus. The larvae hatch in freshwater creeks or in adjacent brackish coastal lagoons of the warm temperate southwestern coast of the Atlantic Ocean; larval development is possible in low salinities ...

Comparative iTRAQ-based quantitative proteomic analysis of the Chinese grass shrimp (Palaemonetes sinensis) infected with the isopod parasite Tachaea chinensis [PDF]
Background Although parasitic isopods can negatively affect the reproduction and ingestion of several commercially important crustaceans, little is known regarding the mechanisms that underlie these effects.
