The control of vascular resistance in the southern rock lobster, Jasus edwardsii (Decapoda: Palinuridae)

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Molecular & Integrative Physiology, 2003
In Jasus edwardsii (Hutton) the vascular resistance of each of the seven major arterial systems leaving the heart was increased in response to several of the following neurotransmitters and neurohormones: acetylcholine, adrenalin, serotonin, dopamine, octopamine and peptides proctolin and FLRFamide-related peptide F(1).

Lipid Nutrition of the Spiny Lobster Panulirus Japonicus (Decapoda, Palinuridae): a Review

Crustaceana, 1994
The nutritional research on crustaceans such as the American lobster Homarus americanus and the prawn Penaeus japonicus has been reviewed by several workers. However, nutritional studies on Palinuridae are very scarce, particularly on the larval stages that are difficult to rear under artificial conditions.

Tethys origin and subsequent radiation of the spiny lobsters (Palinuridae)

Crustaceana, 2006
[The Palinuridae arose in the Atlantic-European region during early Mesozoic at a period of high sea level in the vast, warm 'Super Tethys' Ocean. During the Tertiary, equator-ward movements of the African, South American, and Australian Plates have subdivided the Tethys, created and expanded the Southern Ocean, and thus produced a multitude of ...

Bactericidal Activities of the Hemolymph of the Japanese Spiny Lobster, Panulirus Japonicus (Decapoda, Palinuridae)

Crustaceana, 1994
The hemolymph of Japanese spiny lobster was examined for agglutinin and bactericidin activities using 20 (agglutinin) and 25 (bactericidin) strains of marine bacteria. The lobster's sera specifically agglutinated and killed a part of strains belonging to the genera Vibrio and Pseudomonas.

Occurrence of the rare lobster Palinustus unicornutus Berry, 1979 (Decapoda, Palinuridae) in Taiwan

Crustaceana, 2016
The deep-sea lobster Palinustus unicornutus Berry, 1979 is reported for the first time from Taiwan, with the largest male and female ever recorded for the species.

Sounds and Behavior of the Spiny Lobster Panulirus Argus (Latreille, 1804) (Decapoda, Palinuridae)

Crustaceana, 1977
[Laute der Languste Panulirus argus wurden registriert, analysiert und auf Grund unterschiedlicher physikalisch-akustischer Merkmale in drei Kategorien eingeteilt. Die Merkmale der einzelnen Kategorien wurden zusammengestellt und beschrieben. Zwei der Lauttypen - "popping sounds" (Knalllaute) und "flutters" (Flatterlaute) - sind in der Literatur uber P.

The Ecology of the juvenile southern rock lobster, Jasus edwardsii (Hutton 1875) (Palinuridae).

1995
This study examined the life history of juvenile Jasus edwardsii, with a particular emphasis on ontogenetic shifts in ecology, and how these shifts and other ecological factors may influence recruitment rates to maturity and the fishery. The aspects examined included settlement, density and distribution, shelter utilisation and availability, diet ...

Fecundity of spiny lobsterPalinurus gilchristi(Decapoda: Palinuridae) off South Africa

African Journal of Marine Science, 2005
Fecundity of spiny lobster Palinurus gilchristi was investigated on traditional lobster fishing grounds on the Agulhas Bank, from Mossel Bay to Algoa Bay, and Port Alfred, based on early- and late-stage egg masses collected from 415 mature females (58–118mm carapace length, CL).

Growth of spiny lobster Palinurus gilchristi (Decapoda: Palinuridae) off South Africa

South African Journal of Marine Science, 1997
Growth of spiny lobster Palinurus gilchristi was investigated on four traditional lobster fishing grounds, Agulhas Bank, St Francis, Port Elizabeth and Port Alfred, using tagging data. Of 11 144 individuals tagged insix tagging sessions between 1988 and 1993, 1 031 (9.25 %) were recaptured by May 1995. Most P.
