Morphometric differentiation in small juveniles of the pink spotted shrimp (Farfantepenaeus brasiliensis) and the southern pink shrimp (F. notialis) in the Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico [PDF]

, 2006
The morphometric and morphological characters of the rostrum have been widely used to identify penaeid shrimp species (Heales et al., 1985; Dall et al., 1990; Pendrey et al., 1999).

Quantitative determination of ovarian development in penaeid prawns (Decapoda: Penaeidae) [PDF]

Journal of Crustacean Biology, 2017
We developed histological methods to increase precision in measuring oocyte size and, for the first time, quantify changes in oocyte composition during ovarian development in penaeids. Wild-caught female Metapenaeus dalli Racek, 1957 from the Swan-Canning Estuary, Perth, Western Australia were used as a model species to compare the novel method to ...

Potential Functions of the Gut Microbiome and Modulation Strategies for Improving Aquatic Animal Growth

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 17, Issue 1, January 2025.
ABSTRACT The increase in the body weight of animals, a pivotal indicator closely tied to production, is important to the aquaculture industry. Despite remarkable variability in gut microbiomes, which are intricately associated with their hosts and affect overall performance, fitness, and physiological outcomes, across individuals and species, the ...

Diet variation and trophic impact of weakfish, Cynoscion regalis, within multiple marine habitats of the eastern United States

Journal of Fish Biology, Volume 105, Issue 6, Page 1628-1642, December 2024.
Abstract Weakfish (Cynoscion regalis) is not federally managed but feeds on species of management and ecological interest. We examined the trophic ecology of weakfish in Chesapeake Bay and the coastal and offshore waters of the eastern United States. For these areas, we determined the dominant prey of weakfish; identified how much diet variation was ...

A new record of the Jinga shrimp Metapenaeus affinis (H. Milne Edwards, 1837) (Decapoda, Penaeidae), on the Egyptian Coasts, the Mediterranean Sea

Egyptian Journal of Aquatic Research, 2021
An unexpected new Metapenaeus shrimp species has arrived to the coastal water of Alexandria City, Egypt. Morphological and molecular studies were conducted for its identification. The results revealed that it is the Indo-West Pacific species, Metapenaeus

Unraveling the Complete Mitochondrial Genome of Potamalpheops Sp. (Purple Zebra Shrimp) (Crustacea: Decapoda) Provides Insights Into Its Phylogenetic Relationships and Gene Order Rearrangements

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 11, November 2024.
Potamalpheops sp. is the species belong to family Alpheidae, and this is the first report from Taiwan. Also, the mitogenome of this species has been sequenced for the first time as there was a lack of sequence information regarding this species.

Bottom Trawling and Multi‐Marker eDNA Metabarcoding Surveys Reveal Highly Diverse Vertebrate and Crustacean Communities: A Case Study in an Urbanized Subtropical Estuary

Environmental DNA, Volume 6, Issue 6, November–December 2024.
We demonstrated the effectiveness of eDNA metabarcoding as a valuable addition to bottom trawling for monitoring the species composition and spatial distribution of fish and crustacean communities in urban estuaries. We also showed that a multiplexed‐marker approach enhances species detection, especially in some taxa, for example, cartilaginous fish ...

The language of light: a review of bioluminescence in deep‐sea decapod shrimps

Biological Reviews, Volume 99, Issue 5, Page 1806-1830, October 2024.
ABSTRACT In the dark, expansive habitat of the deep sea, the production of light through bioluminescence is commonly used among a wide range of taxa. In decapod crustaceans, bioluminescence is only known in shrimps (Dendrobranchiata and Caridea) and may occur in different modes, including luminous secretions that are used to deter predators and/or from
