Contribution to the knowledge of Atyidae and Palaemonidae (Crustacea: Decapoda) of Greece

Zootaxa, 2019
This contribution aims in enhancing knowledge of the zoogeography of the freshwater shrimp fauna of Greece, based on field collections carried out from 2002–2016. A total of 167 specimens were collected from 25 locations in rivers, streams and lakes of the Greek peninsula and islands.

Further records of burrow-associated palaemonid shrimps (Decapoda: Palaemonidae)

Zootaxa, 2019
Despite the ubiquitous nature of symbiosis in palaemonid shrimps (Caridea: Palaemonidae) which live in or on varied invertebrate hosts, such as echinoderms, sponges, ascidians, hard and soft corals, etc., very few taxa have been recorded living in burrows constructed by other animals.

Hepatopancreatic sucrase ofMacrobrachium lamarei (Crustacea, Caridea, Palaemonidae)

Proceedings: Animal Sciences, 1982
The effect, of seven factors was studied on the activity of hepatopancreatic sucrase ofMacrobrachium lamarrei. Its optimum pH is 6·0 and optimum temperature 50° C and its activity was suppressed by the two end products, glucose and fructose. On prolonging incubation period sucrase activity remained constant up to 8 hr, declined thereafter, finally ...

A Tropical Shrimp in the Bay of Fundy (Decapoda, Palaemonidae)

Crustaceana, 1970
A specimen of Leander tenuicornis (Say) (Decapoda, family Palaemonidae) was taken near the mouth of the Bay of Fundy on August 24, 1969. This is the first record of this species for the Bay of Fundy, and none have been reported from the Gulf of Maine proper. The specimen is an ovigerous female 29 millimeters total length, including the rostrum.

The Influence of Environment on the Morphology of Macrobrachium australiense (Decapoda: Palaemonidae)

Aquaculture International, 2004
The common endemic Australian freshwater prawn, Macrobrachium australiense is recognised as having potential as a culture species. Across the species’ natural range high variation exists for external morphological traits of relevance to culture. Previous studies have demonstrated that morphological variation can often be correlated with environmental ...

Osmoregulation and respiratory metabolism in brazilian Macrobrachium (Decapoda, palaemonidae)

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Physiology, 1983
Abstract 1. 1. The effect of salinity (0, 7, 14, 21, 28 and 35‰) on osmoregulatory capability and metabolic rate in adult Macrobrachium acanthurus, M. heterochirus, M. olfersii and M. potiuna , was investigated at 20°C using a microcryoscope and Warburg respirometer. 2. 2.

OSMOREGULATION IN THE PRAWN PALAEMON LONGIROSTRIS (CARIDEA, PALAEMONIDAE)

1988
Salinity tolerance, and several aspects of osmoregulation, ionic regulation and permeability were measured for Palaemon longirostris at three temperatures (4, 12 & 20°C). Influence of ontogenetic stage on salinity tolerance and osmoregulation was investigated by testing separately individuals sorted, using carapace length, into 'small' (10-18mm ...
