From rivers to museums: 28S rDNA as a tool for molecular identification of Amazon palaemonids prawns [PDF]
Anais da Academia Brasileira de CiênciasMorphological identification of Palaemonidae prawns often proves challenging due to the overlap in their characteristics. In this study, we evaluated the utility of 28S ribosomal DNA (rDNA) sequences as a molecular tool for accurately identifying prawns ...

Studies on the morphometry of Macrobrachium nobilii (Decapoda, Palaemonidae) [PDF]
Brazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2004 Fourteen morphometric characters of Macrobrachium nobilii (Henderson and Matthai, 1910), a freshwater prawn were measured from 72 males and 66 females collected at random in field. The growth constant (b) of total length and weight for male (4.28) and female (3.02) differed significantly (P<0.05).

Molecular perspective on the American transisthmian species of Macrobrachium (Caridea, Palaemonidae) [PDF]
ZooKeys, 2014 The closure of the Isthmus of Panama (about 3.1 million years ago) separated previously continuous populations and created two groups of extant species, which live now in the Pacific and Atlantic drainage systems. This relatively recent event was a trigger to diversification of various species in the Neotropics, nonetheless there are exemplars that do ...
