Linking eye design with host symbiont relationships in pontoniine shrimps (crustacea, decapoda, palaemonidae) [PDF]
Symbiosis is prevalent in the marine environment with many studies examining the effects of such interactions between host and symbiont. Pontoniine shrimps are a group whose ecology is characterised by symbiotic interactions.

Fecundity and fertility of Macrobrachium amazonicum (Crustacea, Palaemonidae) [PDF]
In Brazil, studies with native freshwater prawn species were discontinued due to great importance of Macrobrachium rosenbergii. Therefore, it is necessary to continue investigations about our species, in order to develop technology adequate to our reality and in a future allow prawn farmers to culture other species.
