Living, freshly collected individuals of three species of snapping shrimps were studied to determine any differing morphological, developmental, and ecological features: Alpheus heterochaelis, collected from Beaufort, NC; A. angulosus, found mainly i

Eight zoeal larval forms and the postlarval form of the prawn, Palaemon floridanus Chace, 1942, are described, based on laboratory reared animals that passed through as few as 8 or as many as 16 larval instars. This "extended" pattern of larval devel

Effects of three different macrophytic covers and the presence of alternative prey on survival of grass shrimp (Palaemonetes pugio and P. vulgaris) subjected to predation by killifish (Fundulus heteroclitus) were studied in the laboratory. Overall, s

The effect of eyestalk ablation at various times on size (overall body length, carapace length, and body width) of fourth instar (postlarval instar during normal development) Alpheus heterochaelis was studied. Animals which underwent bilateral eyesta

Summary Eyestalk ablation at particular times during the second (2 and 20 h post-hatching) and third (10 h intervals up to 70 h) larval instars was studied with regard to effects on instar duration and mortality in the snapping shrimp, Alpheus hetero

Zoea larvae of Alpheus heterochaelis were reared in isolation in the laboratory at selected temperature levels (17, 22, 25, and 27°C) and 32‰ salinity. One or both eyestalks were removed from some animals (experimentals), or antennae from others (

The eyestalk of many crustaceans contains the X-organ, the presumptive site of production and release of many protein and peptide hormones into the hemolymph. Removal of the eyestalk deprives the animal of these hor- mones and is known to affect many

Experiments were conducted to evaluate the effect of different macrophytes on the distribution of grass shrimps. Populations of Palaemonetes pugio and P. vulgaris were placed separately, then together, in an experimental (aquarium) environment compri

1. 1. Larvae (first zoeae) of Palaemonetes vulgaris are relatively stenohaline (optimum salinity = 20%.), adults euryhaline (96-hr LD50 values: 0.8 and 51%.). 2. 2. The concentration of blood sodium remains nearly constant over the salinity range 5
