Ontogenesis and functional morphology of the digestive system of the freshwater prawn, Macrobrachium amazonicum (Decapoda: Palaemonidae)
The appropriate feeding regime for larvae and post-larvae of crustacean decapods is essential for successful larval culture. Reports on the development and morphology of the mouthparts and foregut of these crustaceans have aided in the selection of appropriate larval foodstuffs and consequently increased larval survival and growth rate during development. In the present study, the functional mo...
متن کاملMolecular Analysis of the Freshwater Prawn Macrobrachium olfersii (Decapoda, Palaemonidae) Supports the Existence of a Single Species throughout Its Distribution
Macrobrachium olfersii is an amphidromous freshwater prawn, widespread along the eastern coasts of the Americas. This species shows great morphological modifications during ontogenesis, and several studies have verified the existence of a wide intraspecific variation. Because of this condition, the species is often misidentified, and several synonyms have been documented. To elucidate these asp...
متن کاملMacrobrachium indianum (Decapoda: Palaemonidae), a new species of hill stream prawn from Pambar River, Kerala, India.
Macrobrachium indianum new species is described from the Pambar River, Kerala, S. India. The species shares certain characters with M. gurudeve Jayachandran & Raji, 2004, M. bombayense Almelker & Sankolli, 2006 and M. kulkarnii Almelker & Sankolli, 2006, while it differs remarkably from these three species in distinctive diagnostic characters: rostral formula 7-8/3-4 with 1 postorbital teeth, o...
متن کاملExternal Description of the Embryonic Development of the Prawn, Macrobrachium Americanum Bate, 1868 (decapoda, Palaemonidae) Based on the Staging Method
The embryonic changes during the development of the freshwater prawn, Macrobrachium americanum are described from observations made on live embryos based on the percentage-staging method. Eggs were observed with a stereomicroscope to obtain descriptions of embryonic periods. This prawn has an incubation time of 18 days at 24◦C. Ten periods are described and illustrated. A comparison of this dev...
متن کاملVitellogenesis during the ovarian development in freshwater female prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii (De Man)
In the present investigation, vitellogenesis during ovarian development in the freshwater prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii was assessed. Ovarian development was classified into five stages based on size, colour and texture of ovary. Interestingly, histological results clearly indicate that the oocyte development gradually increased from stages I to V based on the yolk material accumulation. Besi...
