Some lobsters in this group seem to have picked up the common name "prawn", as in Nephrops norvegicus, sometimes referred to as the "Dublin Bay Prawn" as well as the "Norwegian Lobster".

The company farms mussels using 40 longlines in 27 hectares in Bantry Bay - Ireland's richest shellfish-growing waters. The company's longlines are within easy reach of a good pier at Bantry. A 65ft workboat specially adapted for fishfarming is included. Production in 1997/98 will reach 200 tonnes with potential for 250 tonnes in the following year. Mussels are in growing demand with two factories in Bantry and five others in Ireland buying at IR£0.45/kg landed at Bantry Pier. The company holds a mariculture license for 12 hectares and has been offered a further 15 hectares by the Irish Department of the Marine. Bantry is Ireland's foremost mussel growing area. It produces 75% of Ireland's total of rope grown mussels. It has qualities which are unique to Bantry: Warm plankton-rich water, deep sheltered water not used for fishing, good circulation with strong tidal movement around Whiddy Island, a long deep day channeling plankton and nutrients into the mussel growing areas, four rivers bringing nutrients into the same area from Bantry's hinterland, a good pier, and Ireland's largest mussel processing factory in the town and another smaller factory outside the town. We have put a price of IR£150,000 on the entire operation which we believe is reasonable: 1.. in view of the farm's considerable room for expansion, 2.. and, because a profit of £50,000 per annum should be easily achieveable without further expansion. However, this price is negotiable and the best offer will secure. We would happy to help any new owners find their footing in the first few years and help them develop the farm. There is also a wide pool of very experienced young men in the area who would be available to work on or manage the farm. We will consider all offers and are open to ideas. If you need any further information please do not hesitate to contact me at the above address or by e-mail.

At that time Jerry Barnard told me he thought Dana's type specimens we destroyed in the great Chicago fire of 1871. I don't understand why the specimens were in Chicago, because it seems that Dana was affiliated with the Academy of Natural Sciences in Philadelphia, and his report was published in Philadelphia. Can anyone confirm this fact? If you read Dana's "Introductory Remarks" (pp.1-2), you will discover that there were at least two other mishaps that caused the loss or damage of specimens from this expedition. One disaster was the wreck of the vessel Peacock on the bar of the Columbia River, which "sacrificed all the collections made through two seasons in the South Pacific." Best wishes on your study of the hyalids. Have you contacted Dr. Ed Bousfield? His e-mail is elbousf@islandnet.com. - -Craig Dr. Craig P.

Its a sad story but it sheds some light on the fate of his material. Here it is verbatim. "A word by the author. "The collections in the department of Crustacea which were made by the writer in the course of the cruise of the Exploring Expedition, met with a severs loss at the wreck of the Peacock - the Sloop of War with which till then I had been connected - at the mouth of the Colombia River in 1841. At the close of the first season through the Pacific, which had been spent in explorations through the Paumotu, Society, and Samoan groups, the Crustacea specimens were packed in a large keg and landed, with other packages of specimens, at Sydney, New South Wales, in order to be shipped to the United States. This keg, by some oversight, failed to go with the rest, and a few weeks after was sent on by the Ship Relief to the Hawaiian Islands. It was there taken on board the Peacock, just before she sailed for Oregon, where all was lost on the fatal bar. "Besides this, the vessel has on board the collections of the preceding six months made at the Samoan, Ringsmill and various other Islands in the equatorial regions of the Pacific. Nearly all the specimens of Oceanic Crustacea, that had been made were either in the keg or in the writer's State Room, and on this account but few specimens are now contained in the collections. "The losses were lessened in part, as far as number of species is concerned, by the numerous detailed drawings made by the writer from the living animals as they were collected; in part, also, though the dried specimens of some species that had a safe conveyance to the country; and partly also from the collections made on board the Vincennes, principally by Dr C. Pickering, who was indefatigable in his labors for every Department of Zoology in all regions visited by the Expedition. "The specimens encountered a further catastrophe after reaching Washington. A large part of the packages were opened under authority, before the return of the Expedition. And as they were thus taken from the original numbered bottles and variously distributed in the cases, without consulting the original Catalogues which had been made with great care, and without preserving in all instances the original tickets, these Catalogues were rendered to a considerable extent useless. The occasional queries in the writer's Report on Crustacea, as to the precise localities of specimens are a consequence of this unfortunate misjudgment. Many specimens, moreover, were at the same time injured by turning them into dried specimens, through removal from the alcohol in which they were preserved. "In the following Catalogue, the names of all the specimens described in the Report are given together with the page, plate & figure, for the convenience of reference & comparison. Under each species, of which there are specimens in the collections the locality is given in blue ink, if the specimens is in alcohol, and in red ink, if the specimen is dried. James D Dana New Haven, May 1, 1857" Dr Gary C. B.

The background is the following: The Homarus gammarus population around Helgoland is the only one in the = area of the German North Sea, and it=B4s been dramatically decreasing since= = the the 1950=B4s. With the support of the ministry of agriculture of = Schleswig Holstein the Biologische Anstalt Helgoland plans a restocking = program. In addtition to that, the ministry intends to improve fishery = regulations, and we are asked for scientific advise and suggestions. Up to now, there have been only few regulations on lobster fishery around = Helgoland: legal size is 9 cm carapace length (measured from tip of = rostrum), closing season is from July 15th to August 31st. No protection = of egg-bearing females, but since 15 years or so, the fishermen or = restaurant owners bring egg-bearing females to the institute for hatching = on a good-will basis.

Dear Stephen, In response to your enquiry about the effects of hyperoxia on crustaceans, I enclose below a list of papers from our lab that we published on the topic since a few years. We are not directly working on the O2 toxicity problems, but we are routinely studying the strategy of adaptation developped by aquatic animals facing changes of water oxygenation (O2 concentration from less than 0.5 mg/L up to 20-30 mg/L).=20 Beside the litterature on gas bubbles our colleagues are referring to on the CRUST-List, I must tell you that in laboratory conditions, when we maintained crustaceans (crayfish and crabs) at Po2 =3D 40 kPa, i.e. 20 mg/l for days or even weeks, we do not observe any lethal effect at all (and of course, no bubble!!!). With Pierre Dejours, we also did it in an hyperbaric chamber with trouts in pure O2 equilibrated water at 2 atmospheres (Po2 =3D 200 kPa) for one month... No trouble... In fact, the trick is that whatever the inspired partial pressure of oxygen (Po2) in a realistic range of 3-40 kPa (1.5-20 mg/L), crustaceans adapt their mechanism of O2 transport from the water to the tissues (ventilation, blood flow rate, respiratory pigment affinity... ) in order to keep their blood oxygenation status in a constant, low and steady range. If you remind that in air, and of course in air-equilibrated water, the fraction of O2 is 21 percent, it corresponds to a partial pressure, Po2, of 21 kPa. In human, Po2 in the arterial blood is set in the range 10-14 kPa. In all, the crustaceans we studied we found 1-3 kPa (sorry, if I have been to simple!) To summarize, the TAKE HOME MESSAGE is: the milieu interieur of a crab, a crayfish or a peneid which is in an hyperoxic water where Po2 =3D 40 kPa (40 mg/L, T =3D 15-25 degre celsius) is not hyperoxic! On the contrary, the= animal decreases its ventilation, by the mean of a very fast reflex, to keep a low oxygenated blood at Po2 of 1-2 kPa. Here is the corresponding bibliography (I can send you what you want) and I am of course ready to pursue the discussion on the list.=20 Best wishes, JC - -Massabuau, J.-C., B. Eclancher et P.

After much debate, speculation and soul searching the following proposal has been put forward on which I would appreciate expert opinion. Three species have been proposed: Cherax quadricarinatus Cherax albidus Cherax destructor The conservation body concerned has suggested that C. quadricarinatus be allowed to be introduced and farmed for the following reasons 1] It is a tropical species and cold intolerant and the areas where the farming will occur are high elevation, characterised by cold winters (-10 C for about 20 nights of the year, water temperture about 4-6 C) and therefore even if the beast were to escape cultivation, the chances of establishment in the field are remote. 2] It has no aestivation capabilities and the rivers in South Africa tend to be stocastic in nature, remaining dry for most of the summer. 3] It does not appear to borrow. 4] Provided it is disease free. At present no decision has been made, and I would appreciate people's opinions on these arguments. Many thanks Martin Hill ********************************************** Dr. M.P.

The operations plan must address in detail issues such as disease testing, quarantine during the testing period and prevention of escapement. I would strongly suggest careful development of the facility design protocols which can minimize esacpement potential ie dike and weir designs, proper screening designs, materials, mesh sizes, redundancy etc...There was a recent thread about crayfish plague spread in Europe from transfer of non-indigenous species on one of these lists. it is quite a horror story...

Hello crusters I saw yesterday two pairs of H. fatum copulating (I saw that the female was placed her tail around the male). They were young (and small ones; the smallest male was only some 10 mm in carapace width. It's only 1/3 of the adults males width) specimens and I was thinking: this have to be practice only. Concerning this topic I would like to ask some questions. 1. Do FW crabs practise copulating? 2. Do the females save the spermatozoa for later use? 3. Do different FW crab species behave in different ways in this topic? Thanks Jari Sandqvist =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= To (un)subscribe to CRUST-L: Send (UN)SUBSCRIBE CRUST-L as the message body to MAJORDOMO@VIMS.EDU.

Dear Roy, Thanks for this comment, because it is exactly the typical case for which we must expect bubble formation. It is of course a very nice illustration of what I was saying. Of course, the solubility of gas was suddenly decrease by decreasing the atmospheric pressure and the animals got the gas-bubble disease well know to every diver. But, can you tell us what about the partial pressures of gas in your hyperbaric habitat? In theory, during such a long term exposure, you should have not breathe hyperoxic mixture due to O2-toxicity problems.

Thanks, Jeff - ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: "Judy P. Stout" Subject: Undergraduate Reseach Fellowships- Fall 1998 (fwd) DAUPHIN ISLAND SEA LAB, ALABAMA UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH FELLOWSHIPS AVAILABLE September 14 - November 20, 1998 Alabama's Dauphin Island Sea Lab will offer seven fellowships during the Fall Quarter, 1998, for undergraduate students interested in pursuing careers or graduate studies in marine sciences. Students will participate in an intensive 10 week research experience with a faculty mentor with interests similar to the student's. In addition, participants will attend a series of workshops on professional skills and lectures by outstanding visiting scientists. The Sea Lab will award academic credit for this experience with prior approval of the student's home campus. Students in this exciting marine science program will have the opportunity to gain basic research skills, learn analytical techniques, and interpretation and presentation proficiency. Research areas include aspects of the ecology of early life history stages of marine and estuarine fishes; plant-animal interactions in seagrass beds; nutrient biogeochemistry; microbial, phytoplankton and zooplankton ecology; and others. The base for research activities in this program will be the Dauphin Island Sea Lab located on Dauphin Island, in the Gulf of Mexico about four miles off of the Alabama mainland. The Sea Lab serves the academic programs of 22 Alabama colleges and universities, and diverse other visitors from throughout the U.S. The campus includes classrooms, research laboratories, an educational aquarium, dormitory and dining facilities, the library and dockage for research vessels. Fall weather on the Alabama gulf coast is mild and excellent for recreation and field research. Other activities ongoing during the fall include graduate research and classes for 35+ students, research efforts of the 10 resident university faculty, and day-trips for hundreds of kindergarten through high school classes. Undergraduate research fellowships will consist of a stipend of $2,500, on-campus housing and a meal allowance at the Sea Lab, and assistance with travel for those outside of the Mobile, AL area. Funds for this program are provided by the National Science Foundation, Ocean Sciences Division Research Experiences for Undergraduates and the Alabama Marine Environmental Sciences Consortium. Applications are invited from undergraduates in their junior or senior years. Students cannot have graduated at the time of the fellowship. Applications from minorities are especially encouraged. Participants must be U.S. citizens or permanent residents of U.S. territories. Applicants must provide 1)a completed application form, 2) a statement of career goals and research interests, 3) college transcripts, and 4) two letters of recommendation. Review of applications will begin March 1, 1998 and awards will be made no later than April 1, 1998. More information about the Dauphin Island Sea Lab is available at http://www.sites.gulf.net/sealab. A downloadable application form will be available at this address after January 24, 1998. For questions or to request an application form and more information by mail, please contact the REU director below (email preferred with REU on the subject line). Judy P.

Below is the warning message. I have notified the sender. I suspect this was a MSWord Macro virus. You may want to avoid opening the file, and wait for a clean version. Deleting the file without opening it should be sufficient. If you've opened it in Word, then you may need to obtain an update on macro viruses; they're relatively recent. Such updates are available from Norton and McAfree.

Star Oddi is a high technology company engaged in development and manufacturing of advanced microsystems (microelectronics and sensors). Our main product is a Data Storage Tag (DST), developed and manufactured for fish-research in co-operation with the Institute of Freshwater Fisheries and The Marine Research Institute in Iceland. Although developed for fish research, the DSTs have been used for other animals as well, including Atlantic puffin, turtles and spider crabs. The tag is very easy to use and is unique in its small size, long lifetime, and the ability to measure many environmental parameters. The DST has proven to be a very important research tool and is used today by researchers from many different countries. The DST has made available new methods of studying the behaviour of animals and the environment to which it is exposed to. This is due to the fact that the DST provides unique possibilities in regard to sampling continuous series of behavioural and environmental information from areas and over time periods where other sampling methods fail. The tags have been used successfully to record changes in temperature, pressure, salinity and tilt. Results from the tags have been used in conjunction with satellite imagery. This provides an approximation of a geographic location. Today there are two generations of DST's, the DST 200 and the DST 300, and an ongoing development will result in a release of new generations of DST's in the future. Professor Eduardo Gonzales-Gurriaran from the University of Coruna, Spain, have used our tags with good results on his spider crabs. A short description of the tagging can be seen in our home page under "Crustacean" For detailed information about Star Oddi and the tags please visit our home page: http://www.star-oddi.com Feel free to distribute this information.

To quote from the book's dust jacket: "Few chapters in the history of American science or the U.S. Navy contain more bravura, comic mishaps, or slapdash adventure than the Wilkes Expedition of 1838-1842.... Wilkes- who was then only forty years old and a mere lieutenant in the Navy- traveled to the polar regions, the South Pacific, and to the coasts of what are now Oregon, Washington, and British Columbia, exploring, fighting with natives, mapping, and collecting scientific specimens of everything encountered... The idea for the expedition originated with a crackpot ex-Army captain, hailed as the Newton of the West, who proclaimed that the earth was hollow, with holes at its poles. Patriots demanded that the interior be explored by the only free nation on earth. From that dubious beginning, and after two decades of wrangling among politicians, scientists, and the Navy, the expedition set sail." [By the way, the Smithsonian Institution, the Naval Observatory, and the U.S. Botanical Garden were all founded in part to deal with the specimens and data collected by the expedition.] If you haven't read the book, I strongly recommend it..

It has been over a year since I needed it to clean our office LAN which had become infected, but I downloaded it from the MS web site and it did the job. I've more recently obtained McAfee software and it works well also. You must make a determined effort to catch all the infected files (Word documents in my case), which means "cleaning" all the hard drives you exchange documents with. If you miss one, or invite in an infected file and open it in MS Word, you will start speading the Concept virus again to any files you create in Word. On installation of McAfee on my current computer it located a file downloaded from the net that I had recently opened and one created in Word shortly thereafter as infected and cleaned them up. I can not testify to how good it is at detecting new arrivals as I've not had any "hits". I did not try to open the shrimp_farm.doc file.

I don't know if it's worth pursuing (especially with Pfiesteria rearing it's ugly sulcus), but several parasites occur in mud shrimp (and ghost shrimp). I was thinking of using microspores. Microsporans typically exhibit a high host specificity, and a high pathogenicity. Some of those in insects can be freeze-dried and stored for years! While rare in some populations, they often occur naturally, hence there may be less cause for concern than in using an introduction. For filter feeders, like mud shrimp, exposure could be as simple as putting spores in the water. Worth developing? That depends. What's the monetary loss caused by the shrimp? There's a possible application here to green crabs, too, but rhizocephalans have received more attention as control agents.

To the specific level, generic, family, ... ? How easily can they be IDed? Meaning, how easy is it to be sure that one has the right parasite? How easily do microsporans mutate to infect a new host? How likely are the applied spores to spread beyond the area to be controlled? I would be very cautious about putting a water-born pathogen into breeding ponds or other bodies of water. I think you're onto a good idea, but it'll need lots of preliminary work. Spreading biological control agents should be considered a problem in introducing foreign species into a new environment, not just an exercise in replacing chemical control with biological control. Good topic for discussion, too. Phil > >I've been thinking of an application of biological control to the mud >shrimp "problem."

However, for some reason or other the message bounced, and I send it therefore on the list, as the information may have some wider interest anyway. Wim Vader =09 Dear Joachim, These are the references for the first two parts of Sars`s Caspian Amphipoda papers: Sars, G.O., 1894. Crustacea Caspia. Contributions to the knowledge of the Carcinological Fauna of the Caspian sea. Part III.Amphipoda. 1-st article. Gammaridae (part). -- Bulletin de L\Academie Imperiale des Sciences de St Petersbourg 5(1), 179-223, 8 Plates. Sars, G.O., 1894. (same title)second article. Gammaridae (continued). -- ibid. 5(1), 343-378, 16 plates. Other important authors on the fauna of the Caspian Sea are A.N. Derzhavin (see e.g. Crustaceana 15, 98-100) and Galina Pyatakova, both now deceased. A good bibliography of i.a. Caspian amphipod literature is in vol II of J.L. & C.M.Barnard, 1983. Freshwater Amphipoda of the world. II Handbook and Bibliography. Hayfield Associates, Mt Vernon (possibly available still from National Museum of natural History at the Smithsonian in Washington DC. The newer literature is abstracted in Zoological Records (where one can search for geographical areas) and in my Amphipod newsletter.

This gives good separation of most amino acids.

Agreed, but the exercise is warranted if one is spraying directly into the aquatic environment. The ramifications of DDT use are still with us today. Why not use lady bugs instead of malathion? It's the same argument. Also, the fact that the microspores wouldn't necessarily be foreign is a big plus for development.

Although I do have a copy of the method used by Ernie Chang. I routinely freeze hemolymph in three different ways. (1) Straight up and into the freezer. (2) Clotted at room temperature, and spun for serum. (3) Mixed 1:1 with anticlotting medium (Soderhall and Smith's formulation) and spun for "plasma" as in Stewart et al. (1967). Re the glycine methyl ester method: does it interfere with phosphatase activity (I suspect yes because of the EDTA) or total protein measurements? How long can hemolymph be frozen using the method, i.e., does it deteriorate at -80 C? Why use PBS as the buffering agent, and do you adjust to the osmolarity of hemolymph? Is GEE more expensive than other anti-clotting agents? Cheers, Jeff Chuck wrote: > Darwin Jorgensen et al (Amer.

These characteristics all reduce the chances of establishment and negative impacts, but do not eliminate them. Organisms placed in novel environments sometimes act in unexpected ways, or have unexpected interactions and effects. There are, for example, several cases of organisms becoming established in regions considerably colder than their native range, e.g. the tropical aquatic plant hydrilla thriving in a pond in the northeastern US that freezes solid in the winter, or the tropical seaweed Caulerpa taxifolia that seems to be taking over the northwestern Mediterranean. Selection and genetic change may have produced especially cold-tolerant populations in these cases, or possibly these organisms had capacities that were not expressed in their native environments. Granted that the high-elevation region you describe has cold winters, will cold winters be limiting for an acclimated population? (Not having an acclimated population to experiment with before you introduce them, that may be hard to determine.) Will the conditions under which the crayfish are held and grown in the farms be likely to select for cold-tolerance, and thus potentially produce a population that could become established there even if the initial imports could not? Could the crayfish migrate downstream to warmer waters at lower elevations? Once they are available in the country, might individuals try to grow them in warmer areas, with or without government permission? (Within-country transfers are much harder to control then between-country transfers; from my experience it appears that government agencies may frequently be completely unaware of within-country transfers of aquatic organisms, even when the law states that such transfers are to be regulated.) >4] Provided it is disease free. The assumptions behind this statement are worrisome. There is no way to know that the organisms are disease-free; at best one can determine that there is a low probability that they carry the specific diseases that one inspects for. Such inspection programs can fail and have failed to prevent the transfer even of targetted parasites and diseases. For example, California recently began a program of inspecting all shipments of abalone between abalone farms for a particular parasite (an introduced sabellid worm). However, shipments that were inspected and in which the worm was not found at the time of shipment, have in fact carried the worm to previously "clean" farms, and infested them. Every transfer of an organism to a novel environment carries substantial uncertainty, and therefore a significant degree of risk. - -Andy ================================================== >From: "MARTIN HILL" >Organization: NIPB RIETONDALE >To: Crust-l@vims.edu >Date: Fri, 16 Jan 1998 11:32:13 GMT+2 >MIME-Version: 1.0 >Subject: CRUST-L: Freshwater Crayfish Introductions in South Africa >Priority: normal >Sender: owner-crust-l@vims.edu >Precedence: bulk >Status: > >Dear All > >The controversy over the intorduction of Australian freshwater >crayfish into South Africa for aquaculture continues.

You would want to keep the sample between water equilibrated oil droplets in the capillary to avoid evaporation effects if it is large and the sample very small (1 µl?). I presume you will use a visual freezing point reduction technique to estimate osmolality? Some vapour pressure osmometers use a 10-µl (or less) sample that you could aspirate directly with an autopipette into a pipette tip. I had limited success doing this with a very small shrimp.

I read from an old DATZ (Die Aquarien und Terrarien Zeitung, Germany) that there is about 800 species of fresh water crabs (I hope I remember correct) and 600 of them belongs to the family Potamidae. In that article the author (I don't remember who: are you here maybe?) wrote that the species in the family Potamidae doesn't have larval stages. My queries: 1. Is the amount of 800 FW crab species correct? 2. What about the other families? Are they similar to Potamidae when speaking the reproduction without larval stages or does the other families include different ways to reproduct? 3.

The project was typically overexploited formerly and now we are operating the farm along more sustainable production levels and applying polycultural concepts with integration of milkfish ( chanos chanos ) , grouper and other species. Wehave got a problem with our shrimp growth performance. Despite low stocking densities( 15-20animals per meter) , very strict selection of our Pl stocking material and I believe a very carefull water and feed management the growth of our stock is relatively slow and we experience a slow down of growth after we start applying artificial diets as supplement to rich natural feed . The animals appear to be healthy, guts are full, molting appears to be normal and survival rates better than expected. However we observe large variations in size during the animals growth. Is there anybody who could give info on growth inhibiting factors or feed components, there effects and detection in laboratory or field. what would be effects of fungus or mould infested feeds, are there growth inhibitors wich will not affect survival but performance only???

What amount of water exchange and/or aeration are you maintaining per hectare ? What are your pond dimensions ? And, yes, mouldy outdated feed 'will' impact on the growth rates. Can you tell me the approximate location of the farm in Indonesia and I might have some suggestions. Rehabilitation after disease problems ? If 'yes' your stocking densities might still be too high initially. Colin Answer to your letter: Dear Colin, To answer your questions, we are culturing P. monodon having 0,5 ha. ponds and using 2-3 paddle wheels depending on the biomass. Water exchange at 50% per week at the minimum. The location of the farm is on the northern coast of Java. The ponds we are using, have not been used as shrimp ponds before and the soil is still rich with organic matters from agricultural use, but not acid mangrove soil. In your letter, you mentioned the effect of mouldy feed on the growth rate. Because we are most certain that we are operating following good scientifically supported practical standarts, and all data are ranging in noncritical to good values, we suspect that the artificial feeds we are using to supplement the natural food base could be causing the slow growth. Could you possibly give some literature references regarding the impact of spoilt feeds? What would be toxins to look for and how are the laboratory procedures for their detection. Thanks!

The jellyfish-associated amphipod Hyperia galba (Montagu) was described by Montagu as "eyes clear red when alive",and G.O.Sars, a good observer, also writes "eyes reddish-brown". On the other hand, Hardy figured Hyperia with green eyes, and also Schellenberg, in Tierwelt Deutschlands, writes categorically: Augen gr=FCn. The Hyperia studied by de Wolf in the Netherlands definitely have green eyes, and he now wonders, whether there is just confusion and uncritical copying in the literature, whether the eye colour may vary individually or with growth, or if there are maybe geographic differences.

Variations in eyeshine will be the result of variations in shielding pigment position and the efficiency with which the tapetum reflects particular colours o f light. This in turn will depend on the state of light adaptation of the animal. In light adapted specimens from coastal regions shielding pigments will surround the rhabdom, cutting down the amount of light reflected by the tapetum. The only light reflected will be the little that is reflected by the shielding pigments - this will be a dull red. I have seen green eyeshine in mesopelagic shrimps but this was after the animal had been pickled in saline formalin. Theoretically, the tapetum should be most efficient at reflecting green light (since this is the predominant colour below 10 m). If there were no rhabdoms in the way, perhaps an eye that had been damaged, maybe the reflected light would be green?

I would be very grateful to you for any information concerning: 1-the depth range and spatial distribution of typical pelagic mysids 2-the depth range (incl. vertical migrations) and spatial distribution of Euphausia. There must be thousands of published works in the litterature. One particular species would be enough (Euphausia superba ?) 3-the depth range and spatial distribution of Gnathophausia. The gigantic species Gnathophausia ingens (I read the paper by Hessler in 1985 -Trans. Roy. Soc. Edinburgh 76 p. 115-122) occurs between 400 and 900m; do the other species have a comparable depth range. I could not find any data. 4-the swimming abilities of the so-called swimming crabs (ex: Portunus). Are they occasional swimmers or do they live off bottom during their whole life cycle (forgive me to ask this stupid question, I am not a biologist !) 4-One more question: Halocyprid ostracodes are useful animals for comparison with possible Palaeozoic pelagic organisms. I found at least 3 types of ornamented patterns in the material I collected off Japan, for example - - reticulae and scales in Conchoecia daphnoides - -deep rectangular reticulae in Conchoecia imbricata - - terrace lines or fingerprint-like ornament in Conchecia lophura. These peculiar ornamented patterns must have a functional significance in close relation with the locomotion of the animal (during their vertical migrations ? to reduce sinking velocities ? to enhance buoyancy ?). I have no convincing answer at the moment. Does anybody have a clue or knows any published work dealing with the hydrodynamics of small crustaceans ? 5-last question : The carapace of some lower Palaeozoic bivalved arthropods bear long spines (anteriorly and posteriorly) very similar to the spiny processes in the Recent Conchoecia daphnoides or in the larval stages of decapods. I would like to know more about the morphology and functional morphology of the carapace or decapod larvae. For example, the zoea larva of porcelain crabs seems to have extremely long spines (what is the function of these features ? anti-predatorial ? to increase flottability). Does anybody knows any good paper about the subject ? Thank you very much for your help.

Some can also lift off the bottom and stay suspended in the water for extended periods (small blue crabs do this when going after baited hooks). Some of the so-called pelagic portunids cling to floating Sargassum, but reportedly chase down and catch fish in the water column. On the other hand, Carcinus maenas (if you consider this a true portunid) really doesn't swim at all.

Unfortunately the biochemical analyses cannot be performed at the same institution where the rearing exps will be conducted due to a lack of facilities. In this respect I have several questions which I hope can be addressed: 1. Can the larvae be frozen until the analyses can be performed (about 6-8 months later). If so, what is a suitable freezing temperature? Does anyone have any comments/suggestions as to in what containers the larvae should be frozen. Should a smalll volume of water be included along with the larvae? 2. Can biochemical analyses be performed on larvae previously preserved in formalin? 3. Is anyone aware of very recent literature ie very late 1997/1998 which provides new techniques for C,N,H, lipid and protein fractions. I have several of Klaus Angers recent papers and will use similar techniques if there is no additonal info. Any comments!! Lastly, should we be able to freeze the larvae, I presume that eggs can be treated in the same manner! Looking forward to hearing from you.

I have reviewed the literature and as far as I am aware, such info is available for four spp only viz Upogebia edulis, U savignyi, Calianassa tyrrhena and C krausii. Only the publication on C tyrrhena involves direct experimentation in this respect - the others are basically observations. Is anyone aware of additional studies which I may have missed? My literature review revealed very little by the way of investigations on the larval ecology of thalassinids (not descriptions). Am I correct in assuming that the literature is scarce in this respect and I have not just missed several important papers?

Over the 2 month period I have clocked up many hours of underwater observations on known individuals regarding general ecology and feeding behaviour of truly wild (non diver fed) fish. Sad though it may seem, one of my highlights to the work was the collection of 2 faecal samples from juvenile/sub-adult C. undulatus, to my knowledge the first ever. To my knowledge only one paper has ever been published upon the stomach contents of C. undulatus, Randal 1976, and so data is lacking to say the least. I am looking for an idiots guide to crustacean parts to use as guidance on my identifications or better still names of scientists to whom i could send my precious samples for identification. I have already had a general inspection and can identify sizeable body parts of either small swimming crabs, hermits, sea urchin spines and some small fish bones, i am sure there is more to see and i would love to know the specifics. I would be very grateful for any help or pointers in the right direction. yours sincerely simon enderby IBEC UNIMAS 94300 KOTA SAMARAHAN SARAWAK MALAYSIA FAX: 00 6 082 671903 EMAIL: simon_enderby@hotmail.com ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= To (un)subscribe to CRUST-L: Send (UN)SUBSCRIBE CRUST-L as the message body to MAJORDOMO@VIMS.EDU.

As is widely accepted, the central nervous system is the most vulnerable organ, then it appears that my research should target on this organ. However the problem is the cerebral ganglion in this species is so tiny (only a few mg) that it is very difficult to obtain adequate samples for determination of ATP level in the ganglion as well as to collect samples as fast as within one minute. Now my questions are: 1. Are there any references which deal with collection of cerebral ganglion in this species or other crustacean species and the biochemical analysis with crustacean cerebral ganglion? 2. Which kind of killing method is appropriate to crabs when the activities of GlDH (glutamate dehydrogenase) and GS (glutamine synthetase) in hepapancreas and muscles; concentrations of ATP, glutamine, and alpha-ketoglutarate in the above tissues and maybe in cerebral ganglion will be measured? Is MS-222 a suitable anaesthetic? 3. Is there any latest reference out here about biochemical responses of crustaceans to ammonia toxicity? Any comments and suggestions are always welcomed.

Yes, only if they are frozen immediately after sample taking and homogenized at -25 or -30C . The recipients are preferably glass tubes with screw cap, which can be closed tightly and flushed with nitrogen. No water at all should be added. The samples must be as dry as possible!! About sample amounts, e.g. if proximate composition (lipid, protein, water, ash and carbohydrates) on wet samples (tissue) has to be determined at least 7 g of wet material should be available. If the material is dry (diets) less is needed. For other analysis, like vitamins other sample preparations are necessary!! (-80C)... > 2.

There exist some very nice new techniques to determine N and C quickly on small sample amounts with very expensive equipment. In our lab we use simple techniques: for lipids: cold extraction (Folch) for protiens: Kjeldahl for ash ans water content: ovens carbohydrates are determined by substraction. > > > Lastly, should we be able to freeze the larvae, I presume that eggs can > be treated in the same manner!

Gilson's Fixative (from Humason, 1979): nitric acid, conc. 15 ml glacial acetic acid 4 ml mercuric chloride crystals 20 gm 60% ethyl alcohol 100 ml distilled water 888 ml "Good for invertebrate material. Does not give a good histological picture; shrinks cytoplasm badly. Wash in 50% alcohol. Posttreat for mercuric chloride. Good for beginners, easy to work with." "For mercuric chloride removal: transfer to 70% EtOH containing saturated soln of iodine. Leave in solution for 5-8 hour, but no longer. Add solution loses color, add more. Later, when staining the sections, include iodine-alcohol or Lugol solution in the staining series to eliminate remaining crystals from sections." I use Bouin's on crabs and Davidson's on abalone routinely. Both give reasonable results with ovaries. You may want to lengthen embedding times if you're having trouble with penetration. Be sure to use 10 times more fixative than tissue to insure proper fixation. Smaller samples are generally better as they fix better, allow better penetration, and are easier to cut.

In 1967, Philippe Bodin from the University of Brest (France) published his first amended list of the marine harpacticoid copepods which were discovered or redescribed after the appearance of the reputed Monographie der Harpacticiden by Karl Lang (1948). Updates of Bodin's catalogue were published at regular intervals, and became an unrivaled source of information for curators, students and researchers working on marine harpacticoid copepods. The latest edition dates back to 1988, but within a timespan of nearly 10 years, 172 papers dealing with marine harpacticoids appeared, and the systematic framework as proposed by Lang in 1944 and 1948 has been drastically changed. The new 304 pages thick catalogue of the marine harpacticoids, is far more than an update of the 1988 edition. It gives the reader an overview of what has changed in the last decade, and while the catalogue is particularly devoted to marine harpacticoids, it also refers to valuable information about the systematic framework of freshwater families. In the appendix, the catalogue lists the systematic framework of the Harpacticoida, as proposed by Lang in a preliminary account he published in 1944. Privately issued by Lang himself, the paper has been rarely referred to as it becames a curiosity and difficult to obtain. This explains some of the confusion that arose about the correct publishing dates of several taxa. Because of the taxonomic importance of that work, the 1997 edition contains the entire list of taxa dealt with in Lang's 1944 paper. All information about the catalogue can be obtained at the following address: Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences c/o Frank Fiers Vautierstraat 29 B-1000 Brussels Belgium Tel. --(32.2) 627.42.80 Fax. --(32.2) 627.41.13 E-mail. frankfiers@kbinirsnb.be =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= To (un)subscribe to CRUST-L: Send (UN)SUBSCRIBE CRUST-L as the message body to MAJORDOMO@VIMS.EDU.

There is a difference between what will give the best results for short term requirements (eg., Hoyer's for its clearing abilities) and what will last in the long term (eg., Canada balsam). There are slides of Hoyer's medium in the CMN collection which are in poor condition after ten years, so it would not be a medium I would suggest for use in long-term storage. Judith (Ms) Judith C.

Strenth, Ned E. 1976. A review of the systematics and zoogeography of the freshwater species of Palaemonetes Heller of North America (Crustacea: Decapoda). Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology, number 228. 27 pp. 2. Fleming, Laurence E. 1969.

How to Know the Freshwater Crustacea. Wm. C. Brown Company, Dubuque, Iowa. 227 pp. [pp. 215-218] 4. Pennak, Robert W. 1989. Fresh-water Invertebrates of the United States, 3rd ed. John Wiley & Sons, NY. 628 pp. [pp. 509-513] It is likely that your species is Palaemonetes paludosus (Gibbes, 1850). There is one cautionary note that I'd like to pass on. Telson spination and (especially) appendix masculina setation are important characters used in identifications; a tacit implication in keys is that they are conservative and consistent within species. In an early 1980s South Carolina study (Lake Marion), I found that these characters varied among specimens of P. paludosus (e.g., some had 5 or 6 apical setae on the apex of the appendix masculina instead of the 4 noted in the key).

I received good help from many of you and would like to thank all parties helping me with this problem. For technical reasons with the net here in indonesia or better my location in the "bush" and poor phone lines, I react a bit slow , but better late than never. We have been following up with our problem and specially in comparative feeding trials with trash fish as well as other brands of commercial feeds, the control groups are doing now very fine compared to the original feeds. The laboratory analysis of the old feed brand is still hanging on, but we will need some luck to find anything like afflatoxines, as the feed deliveries have been erratic some times and possibly not all shipments have been contaminated. I understand that once weekly polluted feeds will be sufficient. However the practical experiment hopefully is sufficient to bring the otherwise good performance of our shrimp ponds back on track.

Currently we are using Mapinfo Professional version 4.1 for Windows 3.11 and Windows 95/NT which is about a year old. The most recent version available is 4.5 for Windows 95/NT. It is moderately expensive and retails for about $1300 US. A number of base maps of the US and the World are included in the package. At the QM we also have detailed base maps of Queensland catchment boundaries, the Queensland coastline etc. which were either digitised manually or purchased. The learning curve is quite steep but producing maps becomes fairly routine when you are used to the package. Latitude and longitude data can be imported from Access, Dbase or Excel and easily converted to map point files. Points can also easily be added to base maps manually using a mouse (there is an option available which shows the cursor position on the screen as a latitude and longitude at the bottom of the screen). A good range of symbol shapes and sizes, shading etc are available. If you want a demo, drop into the QM and I'll show you some of the pros and cons (try before you buy!). _____________________________________________________________________ Mr John W.

Mangum I am sure many subscribers to this list will be saddened to learn that Charlotte P. Mangum passed away yesterday after a two year battle with cancer. For nearly four decades, Charlotte has been a leading figure in marine invertebrate comparative physiology and biochemistry. She published more than 150 research articles and book chapters addressing fundamental questions about respiratory gas exchange and ion regulation in marine and estuarine polychaetes, molluscs, and decapod crustaceans. Over the past 15 years her work focused on the structure and function of hemocyanin in brachyuran crabs, particularly the adaptability of hemocyanin subunit composition to environmental change in the blue crab, Callinectes sapidus. Her studies of hemocyanin function in molting blue crabs resulted in her receiving the 1986 Outstanding Paper Award from Journal of Crustacean Biology. Perhaps her most enduring legacy will be (to paraphrase Charlotte's close friend and colleague Nora Terwilliger) that Charlotte educated biochemists to put the molecule back in the animal, that is, to study respiratory proteins under physiologically relevant conditions. Charlotte will be sorely missed. - ------------------------------------ Dr. Charles E. Booth Department of Biology Eastern Connecticut State University 83 Windham St. Willimantic, CT 06226 U.S.A.

I have 3 specimens of redclaw (now they are in 250 liters aquarium): 2 males (14-15 and some 12 cm) and one female (some 10 cm). Lenghts are from the tail to the head (is this SL?). I would like to have the males just until the female will get eggs. Is this possible in aquarium conditions? In which size the female will get ovigerous? Could I sell the other male or is it better for the fertilisation that I have 2 males? thanks Jari Sandqvist =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= To (un)subscribe to CRUST-L: Send (UN)SUBSCRIBE CRUST-L as the message body to MAJORDOMO@VIMS.EDU.

We've spent nearly 20 years each scrutinizing the local fauna, and neither of us have seen this relatively large mottled oedicerotid before. It has a semblance to Eochilidium miraculum Imbach, (formerly Synchelidium) but we're seeing slight variations in the shapes of the basis of the last pereopod, and the shape of the carpus of pereopod 3 differs from Imbach's description (printed as pereopod 1, fig H). Imbach's work was from the South China Sea and Gulf of Thailand, 1959-1961, but our collection site is subject to heavy international shipping. Is there anyone out there on the list who has a working knowledge of Eochilidium miraculum Imbach? I can send .jpg images of these Puget Sound specimens to those interested, although unfortunately they are few and in poor condition. Thanks in advance, Kevin Li King County Environmental Lab 322 W.

In one of my 250 liter aquariums I have Macrobrachium brasiliense specimens with several Loricariidae's and a school of guppies (Poecilia reticulata, aquarium strains). Occasionally I have seen that the tail of some guppies is eaten. This happens only in aquariums where I have M. brasiliense shrimps. I have never had a possibility to see how they are hunting guppies. Yesterday evening I give to that aquarium a lot of small bites of Baltic herring as food for all shrimps and fish. One of the biggest male (second last stage) took a place on the middle of the aquarium. He stay there on the top of a piece of wood. On his right claw he had a piece of herring and one young guppy female did try to take cuts of it. I was thinking there is something weird happening - normally my shrimps take so much food they can and goes to some hidden place to eat their foods. And the young guppy is still feeding that piece of herring. The right claw was quite near the head of the shrimp - I saw. The left claw! It was so open it ever could be and slowly, slowly the srimp did move it toward the young guppy. Can this be possible I was thinking. Could a shrimp use a bait for getting more food in this kind of situation?! Normally if some fish comes too near of these shrimps they will just fling fishes away and continue whatever they was doing. Suddenly I see how the left claw attacks! Now the claw isn't any more open and it is there where the guppy did exist one second ago. Situation is over. What I did see? How a Macrobrachium did use his brains? :-o Thanks for your time Jari Sandqvist =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= To (un)subscribe to CRUST-L: Send (UN)SUBSCRIBE CRUST-L as the message body to MAJORDOMO@VIMS.EDU.

Short" Date: Sun, 8 Mar 1998 15:14:40 +1000 Subject: Re: CRUST-L: Cherax quadriqinatus in home aquariums Jari, Redclaws will try and escape from an aquarium for a variety of reasons. Firstly, they are unnaturally confined in an aquarium and will try and wander if given the opportunity. Their usual escape route is up the air hose and if the lid is not secure out the corner of the tank. I had the a large female escape twice even though she was the only crayfish in the tank. On the second occasion, when found, she was so dehydrated that when returned to the tank she floated on the surface for over an hour before sinking to the bottom! For the first few days she looked decidedly unhealthy but staged a full recovery over a period of two weeks. It is unnecessary to have more males than females for successful reproduction in an aquarium. In aquaculture the ratio may be as high as four females for every large male. Having two males in the same tank (even a relatively large aquarium) is probably not a good idea. Although said to be less aggressive than other species of Cherax, agonistic behaviour between males is still well developed, particularly at night. For successful mating you probably need water temperatures above 25 degrees Centigrade and a 12/12 light/dark cycle or better. The female you have should be large enough to mate. _____________________________________________________________________ Mr John W.

A N N O U N C I N G THE SECOND INTERNATIONAL CONGRESS ON THE BIODIVERSITY, ECOLOGY AND CONSERVATION OF THE BALKAN FAUNA The Second International Congress on Biodiversity, Ecology and Conservation of the Balkan Fauna will be held in the Hotel Desaret, Ohrid, Macedonia, on September 16-20, 1998. We anticipate participants from over 15 countries, so this will be a great opportunity to share scientific findings and ideas. (Topics of the 1st Congress, held in Sofia 26-29 May 1997, included: Faunistic diversity, ecology and protection of freshwater and sea ecosystems; faunistic diversity and ecology of reptiles, mammals, birds, arthropods; population genetic aspects and parasitology.) Meeting rooms will be in the Hotel and are equipped with all the usual audio-visual aids as well as video and computer facilities. The Congress' Proceedings will be published as a special symposium volume by the Macedonian Museum of Natural History (Skopje). (Participants will be able to reserve copies at the meeting). The official language of the Congress will be English, and manuscripts should be submitted for consideration at the time of the meeting. The Hotel Desaret is located on the coast of Lake Ohrid, overlooking a bay. Hotel Desaret is just 10 minutes from the city of Ohrid, and 20 minutes from Ohrid Airport. Accommodation will be in either single or double rooms, and costs will include all meals (commencing with dinner on Tuesday 15th through to breakfast on Monday 21st), plus access to the Hotel's private beach, tennis courts and bowling alley. Social activities scheduled include a complementary 'welcome to Macedonia', reception, dinners with live music, and field trips to the St. Naum Monastery, the Lake Ohrid springs, the Galicica National Park, and Lake Prespa. The UNESCO World Heritage Site of Lake Ohrid is known to host 146 endemic species. It lies on the south-western border of Macedonia, 100 miles (160 km) from Skopje International Airport. Ohrid is a museum town, with cultural, historical and artistic heritages dating from the Early Christian Period to the present day. The town features many interesting museums, churches, a pleasant shopping centre, and fine restaurants catering for every taste. The local people are friendly and diverse. Abstract submission forms, pre-registration document forms, and accommodation registration forms will be enclosed with the Second Announcement. We are pleased to announce that we can offer a special reduction on the registration and accommodation fees to student participants and young researchers (below the age of 30). _______________________________________________________________________ WEB-SITES, INFO & LINKS: o Congress Site: "Biodiversity, Ecology and Conservation of the Balkan Fauna" http://members.vienna.at/shrew/biodiv-congress.html Congress Info o Preliminary Questionnaire / Registration Form http://members.vienna.at/shrew/biodiv-register.html o Accommodation in Ohrid during the congress http://members.vienna.at/shrew/ohrid-accommodation.html o The Macedonian Museum of Natural History http://members.vienna.at/shrew/skopje-museum.html o Information on the City of Ohrid (Congress Site) http://members.vienna.at/shrew/ohrid-info.html o Climate, Landscape and Natural Reserves of Macedonia http://members.vienna.at/shrew/macedonia-nature.html o Other Macedonian Links http://members.vienna.at/shrew/macedonia-main.html _______________________________________________________________________ * THIS WILL BE A GREAT MEETING SO BE SURE TO BE THERE... * ======================================================================= Anybody interested to participate should complete the following form / questionnaire.

I have not experience with freshwater crayfish. Just in case, in general (for rock shrip Rhynchocinetes typus) we utilize Ca-free sea water with EGTA( see next paragraph) during 15-30 min. until centrifugation must be slow. Much better if you have a manual centrifuge. The time is between 15 to 30 second. The oocyte were incubated 15- 30 min until the envelope come out appearing soft and ondulating. We recovered the envelopes with a pasteur pipete and washed in destiled water during 5 hours and centrifugated during 10 min at 500 x g , later were solubilized to run in SDS-PAGE. If you need only to renove the envelope it can use pronase, tripsine, quimo-tripsin or serine-protease. All this protease were founded in the spermatozoa of invertebrate (as proteasa-like) that permit the penetration trought the viteline coat. The artificial Ca free-sea water we utilized was: NaCl 0.4 M, KCl 9 mM, MgCl2 23 mM, MgSO4 25 mM, NaHCO3 2 mM; and EGTA 10 mM were added. . If you need to determine the substrate present in the vitelline coat you can use inhitors of protease (SBTI=soybeen tripsin inhibitor or PMSF= Phenilmetasulphonil fluride or pAB=p-aminobenzamide) before to realize in vitro fertilization.

An assigment is to write a proposal to do research which is related to both sediment transport and our own research. I study nocturnal vertical migration of hyperbenthic mysids. Briefly, here is how I'll make the connection: In many studies it is reported that a varying percentage of the population remains near the bottom during the night, appearing to not migrate, with little more known about it than that. It is also known that mysids are typically omnivores; many species of mysids feed on "detritus", and has been reported (although I want to look into this more) that the pelagic (hyperbenthic) species' food must be in suspension to be available to them. So, I am proposing to look at whether there is any correlation between the percentage of a population remaining near the bottom over different nights and the concentration of suspended sediments (includes detritus) in the near bottom layer (lower 1-2 m) on those nights. An ideal environment for this study would be one in which the concentration of near bottom suspended sediments fluctuates on time scales of days or longer (i.e. storm driven environments) rather than within one night (as in coastal environments where tidal currents cause most of the suspension of sed.s). This is because I don't want to assume instantaneous responses of the mysids to these sediments during the night. Environments such as the continental shelf of Washington, Oregon, and California, have that pattern of sediment suspension: during higher winds or storms sed.s are resuspended from the bottom and transported, whereas tidal currents have a smaller effect on transport. (My studies of mysids have been in West Sound Orcas Island, WA, a relatively quiet bay in which little transport occurs and occurs only during peak tidal currents). So, I am seeking a location where hyperbenthic populations of mysids migrate regularly from the bottom off the coast of WA, OR, or CA at depths between say 20 to 40 m. (I am most familiar with Neomysis kadiakensis, however, the study doesn't need to include them.) If anyone is aware of any studies or reports of migratory behavior in hyperbenthic mysids on the shelf of OR, WA, or CA within about 20-40 m depth, I would really appreciate the information. (I would also welcome any general comments on this proposal idea.) Thanks very much in advance!

Thanks, Jeff - ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: "Wulf Kobusch" To: TJansen@ZMUC.KU.DK Subject: Re: CRUST-L: Phylogeny of Peracarida CC: CRUST-L@VIMS.EDU Priority: normal Dear Teunis Mikael Jansen, You asked for "Edriophthalma": In former times it was usual for crustacean systematics to base on characters like "stalked eyes" or "not stalked eyes". Actually it was Lamarck who separated the taxon Crustacea in "Crustac=E9s P=E9diocles" and "Crustac=E9s Sessiliocles". In his "Histoire Naturelle des Crustac=E9s", Milne Edwards (1834) agrees wit Lamarck, but gives new names for the above mentioned taxa.

Now that I'm at Scripps Institution of Oceanography (in the middle of a desert), I have ample access to seawater, but not to fresh. The copepods I'm growing can't live in tap water. I thought about using spring water from grocery store. I called Sigma, and they don't seem to sell "Instant Lake" the way they sell "Instant Ocean." My question to those of you who culture freshwater copepods: 1) Is there a culture medium available that simulates lake water? 2) Has anyone tried spring water from the grocery, and which brands are preferable?

Hello all: Last night I purchased some crayfish in a fish market near Baltimore. They appeared to be Procambarus zonangulus, but may have been a related species such as Procambarus acutus. This surprises me because I've only seen Procambarus clarkii here in the past. Usually, P. zonangulus is an incidental catch in wild harvest or pond culture, although the literature suggests they may be very common in some ponds. The crayfish were exceptionally clean, lively, and (when I saw them) packed in a box instead of the usual onion bags. Their cleanliness suggested to me that they were cultured or depurated rather than packed immediately after a wild harvest. The vendor thought they came from Louisiana. Does anyone know of commercial operations raising Procambarus other than P. clarkii that be the source of these crayfish?

For theoretical treatments, you might try books by: George Gaylord Simpson Theodosius Dobzhansky Niles Eldriged (e.g., _Time Frames_) Stephen Jay Gould (writings in _Natural History_) Willi Hennig, _Phylogenetic Systematics_ Edward O. Dodson, _Process and Product_ For general palaeontology books, perhaps one of the following would be helpful: Alfred S. Romer, _Vertebrate Paleontology_ Edwin H. Colbert, _Evolution of the Vertebrates_ Richard Cowen, _History of Life_ (a textbook) Niles Eldridge and Murray Alcosser, _Fossils_ For books specifically about human or primate evolution, you might like: John G. Fleage, _Primate Adaptation and Evolution_ Glenn C. Conroy, _Primate Evolution_ Donald Johanson and Maitland Edey, _Lucy_ Donald Johanson and Blake Edgar, _From Lucy to Language_ Ian Tattersall, _The Human Odyssey_ Richard Leakey and Roger Lewin, _Origins Reconsidered_ Roger Lewin, _Human Evolution: An Illustrated Introduction_ C. Loring Brace, _The Stages of Human Evolution_ Some of these are popular books, others are textbooks. Of course, your library will have some of these and probably many others, including the major textbooks in the field. Some of the most modern textbooks will not be in your library, because they are available only in paperback, and libraries are rightly concerned that these are too fragile to be effective for their purposes. You may well be able to borrow a small textbook from someone in your anthropology or biology department (if you're at a college). I should warn you that, if you're looking for a synopsis of human evolution or the evolution of some other group, to be sent back to you via e-mail, humbio-l is probably not the place to look. Most of the traffic on this list seems to come from graduate students and professionals in physical anthropology, and a great deal of familiarity with the subject is assumed by most of our subscribers. Also, you may get more personal opinion about some of the more contentious issues than you bargained for:) Good luck!

My name is Jeff Campbell. I am very new to the crust-l. I am employed at the Tennessee Aquarium in Chattanooga, TN as a senior aquarist. Our aquarium is a world-class, primarily freshwater aquarium. Even though I am in charge of our fish quarantine area, I have had for some time a keen interest in crustaceans, especially decapods. As many may realize, Tennessee is a "hotbed" of crayfish diversity. I have felt for some time that there is an excellent opportunity to educate the public as to this rich diversity. Perhaps even an obligation to tell this story... Well, my persistence seems to have paid off. There is a very strong chance that our next theme for the "changing theme" gallery will be crustaceans. Our first theme, "Jellyfish...Phantoms of the Deep" opens tomorrow, and will run until spring of 2000. This gives plenty of time to develop ideas, etc. Due to the marine nature of the Jellyfish... it was felt that the crustacean gallery should have a primarily freshwater focus. Of course there would be a number of marine animals as well... I would love to hear from anyone willing to give me ideas on specific themes, animals, etc. North america has rich diversity, and should probably not present much of a problem as per acquisition of animals. Asian, African, Australian, Latin American fauna might be more of a problem. There are a number of freshwater crabs, shrimp, and crayfish from these areas that I would be interested in, if I knew about them. The literature that is readily available to me is on north american inverts. This project has all the potential to be a very world-class, global perspective, crustacean exhibit, and as I envision it, perhaps on a level never attempted before... Any assistance would be immensely appreciated...

First, I would try switching artemia brands to a Chinese or Brazilian strain. In the past, Costlow and others reported problems with possible pesticides in low amounts in the SFB brand, but it has been definitely shown that the Chinese and Brazilian strains have higher amounts of PUFAs, which may be lacking in the diet of the sesarmids you are trying to rear. They cannot clear the exuvium because they lack the energy to complete molting. This metamorphosis is potentially the most stressful, as many crabs that I have reared (not THAT many, mind you) fail at this stage. Second, use only the freshest daily hatch for the same PUFA arguments listed above. As the nauplii get older, they are less rich in yolky material and may provide a sub-optimal diet.

The setae have distinct proximal and distal regions, and a distinct internal core and external sheath; the internal core penetrates the external sheath distally; in one species, the distal half is flattened, and there are paired fine "plumules" radiating from the internal core. The setae are rather stout, and transparent (else, of course, I wouldn't be able to see much of the above!). A reviewer of my MS, in which I discuss these setae, asked if the inner core isn't "just the lumen of the shaft within the seta," and if the "plumules" aren't just "the dendritic canals that extend laterally from the central setal dendrite?" I'm afraid my morphological expertise, such as it is, does not cover the internal morphology of setae! I will say that I don't see any of this internal structure in the thick bristles Does anyone out there have any information about this, including references?

We are a searchable, worldwide database of aquatic species and producers of food fish and aquarists species which is accessible through the Internet, located at http://www.aquafind.com/. Listing aquatic producers in the database is free and presents the opportunity of gaining more exposure to the Aquaculture community. Searching the database is also free enabling anyo= ne searching for a specific species or producer to have a better chance of consummating their search successfully. This database enables anyone involved in the aquaculture industry to make contacts without having to search the whole web hoping to find someone involved with the species the= y are concerned with. We are constantly contacting producers and associated agencies to encoura= ge them to visit our site and register their company and it's products. Individual producers, research facilities, corporations, and any other persons or groups associated with aquatic species are all welcome to register as the additional potential for exposure can only be an added advantage for them. Our site is supported by advertising and their are n= o fees involved nor is the data contained therein used for solicitation purposes. If the species is aquatic we will list it and if it is not yet in our database we will add it. If their is something you can not find, = we will help with your search. After monitoring the requests in various aquatic news groups for information, we recognize that this would be an ideal medium for researchers to use as a network to make contacts. This site is also an ideal area for retailers to search to find suppliers for their needs. Ma= ny buyers have already found the site to be useful in finding sources for their companies needs. Rather than continuing to relate the possibilities our site presents for you, we just ask that you take a moment to consider it=92s value to you o= r your company and register.

You will probably need to aspirate the hemolymph sample directly from the cardiac region into a glass micropipette pulled out to a fairly fine tip. The pipette should contain water-equilibrated paraffin oil. Aspirate another drop of oil after the sample to avoid water loss by eveporation through the pipette tip. I presume you would then estimate osmolality from freezing point depression of the sample in a cryochamber of some sort. I hope this suggestion helps. regards, John McNamara. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ John Campbell McNamara mailto:jcmcnama@ffclrp.usp.br Biologia, FFCLRP, USP, Ribeirão Preto 14040-901, SP, Brasil Tel +5516-602-3687 FAX +5516-633-3666 http://www.ffclrp.usp.br =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= To (un)subscribe to CRUST-L: Send (UN)SUBSCRIBE CRUST-L as the message body to MAJORDOMO@VIMS.EDU.

For most shrimps, crayfish,lobsters, and crabs you can insert a small-gauge hypodermic needle or capillary tube through an arthrodial membrane at the base of a walking leg to obtain venous (prebranchial) hemolymph. For shrimps and lobsters, you can also insert the needle or tube through the arthrodial membrane at the junction between the cephalothorax and abdomen (dorsal side) and obtain arterial (postbranchial) hemolymph from the pericardial cavity. Small (0.5-1 ml) glass syringes with snug-fitting plungers work best (Hamilton syringes designed for loading gas chromatographs, with short (2-3 cm) needles, work best of all). Disposable plastic syringes will also work, though I try to avoid them. If the hemolymph doesn't clot rapidly, it should flow into the capillary tube; gentle suction is needed with the syringe. Transfer the hemolymph to a small tube and chill on ice; if it clots in the syringe you may never get it clean! It is standard procedure to let the hemolymph clot for a few minutes, break the clot up with a glass rod or tissue homogenizer, centrifuge to separate the serum from the clot, then analyze the serum. Decapods have a hemolymph volume of about 30% of body weight, and can generally tolerate a loss of up to about 5% of their hemolymph over a short period; if there is not much 'bleeding' you may be able to sample repeatedly from individual animals (e.g, before and after a salinity change).

There were woodlice everywhere! Under every flowerpot, in every tree hole and in the cellar: thousands of woodlice. Concurrently, we noticed that the woody window frames, which had been placed ten years before, were degradated in some places. We thought that it was caused by fungi but the holes were full of woodlice. So, my question is : does anyone know cases of woody structure damages in buildings caused by woodlice? Which are the feeding habits of these animals? Are they xylophageous and thus directly responsible for wood destruction? Or find we them there because there is moisture?

It would be very difficult to obtain this volume using a hypodermic needle and syringe where the void volume (volume which cannot be expelled by the plunger) is about 1.5 microlitres for a 3 cm x 0.3 mm internal diamter needle. Of course, if you meant a sample volume of 0.5-2.5 milliliters then following Chuck's suggestions would be the best way.

Not to say you're not right, the setal lumen could be modified into an inner core, etc. But: - -I wouldn't use the term "plumules" in your description of the structures. This is already used to describe fine more-or-less planar exterior branching structures on setae. - -What does the reviewer mean by '"the dendritic canals that extend laterally from the central setal dendrite?"'? This to me refers to neural dendrites, most likely sensory. I do not think such neural structures could be seen in the light microscopic image on your web page, but the inner structures are obviously visible. Is "dendritic" being used in the sense of "tree-like"? If so, it should be avoided, because of the confusion will neural structures. And I would predict that these are sensory setae, and have sensory dendrites within them. I can't provide any references off hand (but then I don't have to, thanks to Pierre!), but chaetotaxy is well-developed in mites and insects, so you might find some information there. If you don't mind trying to convince people that it's relevant to porcelin crabs. The only way to really resolve this issue is to section the setae and examine their structure. This will not be easy, if they are robust, but it is possible (use a hard resin and a diamond knife). The "quick-and-dirty" try is to prepare the appendage for SEM. When it's dry, use a razor blade to fracture the setae, some proximally, some distally, then mount and coat for SEM. If properly fixed (fix as if you were doing TEM), any sensory dendrites, etc. ought to be visible. (The fracturing might work better after the final 100% EtOH if done in LN2.)

I agree with John that a fine capillary tube with paraffin oil is the way to collect microliter volumes of hemolymph; my method works for reasonably well (depending on your syringe) for volumes down to a few hundred microliters. If you plan to have students collect 0.5-2.5 microliters and analyze it by freezing point osmometry, I wish you luck; in my experience, handling and accurately analyzing such small volumes is not easy.

They are really no danger to food (if it is well-stored) or wood. The other way round, they are even helpers to keep your living conditions sane. These fine small critters forage on the bacteria and fungi living in decaying matter. So they will diminish the fungi pollution of cellars and window frames. As our European species are not too well adapted to dryness, you can find them in moist conditions and in warm summers they would try to hide in every shade they can find for not to dry out (and as there are fungi in the holes of your window frames you can be sure it is a moist place!). The only way to get rid of them without exchanging the invaders as promised by Peter or danger for your health is to minimize room moisture and possible hides, then they will leave your house (or do not so and simply die). But at least when the winter comes most of them will die naturally and you can take a broom and they are gone. Let's look forward to the summer coming soon.

Is there somebody who has seen Caridina japonica specimens available from Singaporean aquarium exporters?

There are many examples of protandrous hermaphrodites in shrimp, but they appear to be limited to certain families (Hippolytidae, Crangonidae, Pandalidae, some Alpheidae, and Atyidae are the major ones off the top of my head). It's interesting that non-shrimp families don't appear to show any hermaphroditism at all, with exception of some examples of parasitism. Protandry is most always the pattern described. Lysmata amboinensis is a protandrous, then simultaneous hermaphrodite (my work) and it is likely that several other Lysmata species fit this description in the genus. Unfortunately, clear experimental work is lacking in other simultaneous suspects. (BTW, if anyone wants to fund a postdoc looking further into to this, let me know!!) The freshwater shrimp you are thinking of are probably Atyids. Several species are thought to be protandrous, but not much work has been done in this area. [Carpenter (1978) did an excellent paper on one atyid with a review of hermaphroditism in higher crustacea.] > 2. What would you say about this (Asian?)

This is interesting, as there are very few laws on import/export of animals from Japan in my experience. The exception are corals and some CITES species. I can check with some sources there about C. japonica. > 4. In FW shrimp species, does the fertilisation allways occur with > moulting? Can some shrimps species/genus store any spermatozoa for later > use? In most small caridean shrimp, they must molt to bear eggs. There has been speculation that some Lysmata species store exogenous sperm (from partners), but I have serious doubts on the validity of those statements from my work. It certainly doesn't occur in L. amboinensis, and I suspect other supposed examples of sperm storage are just misinterpretations. For example, solitary L. amboinenis will spawn eggs with every molt, but none of those eggs are fertile. If you remove their partners, they don't spawn fertile eggs afterwards. I'd be very interested if anyone has actually seen something else. If your atyids are simultaneous hermaphrodites or are storing sperm, I'd be very interested in hearing more, and would be interested in collaboration. Good luck, Curt G.

Any > such species in fresh waters? > > =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= The colleagues Sandqvist, Wirtz and Fiedler, started a very interesting discussion about hermaphroditism in shrimps. I think I can contribute with some very new information about protandrious hermaphroditism in Parastacidae. In the neotropical species of crayfishes of the genus Parastacus we have the coexistence of male and female genital apertures in the same animal, suggesting the existence of some type of hermaphroditism. Parastacus brasiliensis and P.defossus from the southernmost State of Brazil, Rio Grande do Sul, were collected, cultivated in laboratory and dissected. The results showed that both species are sequential hermaphroditic species, of the protandrous type, since ovaries are present only in larger (older) specimen. Both testes in males and ovaries in females are connected to the respective genital apertures. Very recently the graduate student Alexandre Oliveira de Almeida in my research group, identified testes progressively transforming into ovaries in middle sized P.brasiliensis and P.defossus. The complete and final results of these investigations will be presented during the Fourth International Crustacean Congress in July 20-24,1998, in Amsterdam.

This is NOT blackhead which is due to undercooking, and may affect 20% of a batch of prawns(usually under 10% in an affected pond). Less than 5% of ponds harvested are affected and within affected ponds it is not the largest or the smallest that show these symptoms. The gill tissue goes grey then black; initially the underlying tissues are not affected but after 48 hours the black colour spreads to other tissue. If pleopods are affected they go grey then black, then then area between them discolours and later the colour moves into the tail meat. There are no visible symptoms before cooking. We suspect algae, possibly oscillatoria, or something which is damaging the gill tissues, maybe releasing an enzyme that causes tissue damage BEFORE cooking. We suspect the causative factor follows a drop in salinity from 30+ppt to nearer 20ppt and may be related to algal succession. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= To (un)subscribe to CRUST-L: Send (UN)SUBSCRIBE CRUST-L as the message body to MAJORDOMO@VIMS.EDU.

I have no idea why A. symnista (sic) (L., 1767) has become so entrenched in the literature, but A. symmysta (L., 1758) does have precedence and is the correct original spelling and date of authorship. Linnaeus (1764) also listed the species as "symmysta," so I must presume that a typo crept into the 1767 work (I think the date of the "1766" is actualy 1767). One thing to keep in mind about this species is that what has traditionally been called "A. symmysta" in publications and on museum specimen labels is actually a group of at least 8 taxa (perhaps more). I would recommend that the assigning of specific names to specimens be put off until my revision is completed, in order to avoid adding more confusion to this group. Because the species are closely related, it is generally not possible to tell what a particular author had in front of him/her unless the specimens are availible for re-examination. Of course, I would be happy to examine albuneid specimens and provide identification for interested parties. Here are the references regarding the above: Linnaeus, C. 1758.

Thanks for your help in the matter. In relation to my observations so far, the size-frequency data is just a part of a larger project I'm running on the river and I'm only part time on the Finniss River work so I don't know when I'll be able to concentrate on it. I'll send you something when I've had some spare time to collate the data I already have. To Crusties in general Thanks to all who sent messages to Ayax. In my decapod studies in the Finniss River (NT Australia) I have had mixed results so far in relation to size frequency distributions. Some results suggest that I am getting some shift in population size through time but it appears to be confused by the breeding/ moulting being more opportunistic than seasonal. On one hand, this latter factor is not unusual given that I am looking at a tropical species but, on the other hand, it is unusal because the river is in a monsoonal climate so there is a very significant seasonality and highly variable water quality. It may be that the time frame over which I am observing that is also causing problems. The latest information was collected at approx. one month intervals over 3.5 months from a few sites and this data suggests some modality and shifting. The larger data sets are collected from more sites but at approx annual intervals (This river is remote from my labs). The larger data sets show no consistency in modality between sites that were sampled at approximately the same time. I would appreciate any comments on aging or moult frequency that you may care to suggest.

Please forgive any unwelcome intrusion. My name is Valerie Lipow. I am a freelance writer and career counselor in Colorado (USA). I am researching the interest in the community of science educators for ancillary materials for introductory high school and college level textbooks in the biological sciences. I have been asked to do this for a textbook publisher in the US. In particular, I am interested in answers to questions below. I wonder if you would be willing to post these questions (either abstracted, or by forwarding this message to your biosci discussion lists) to your colleagues. What type of ancillaries (i.e., what content) would biosci educators like to see available with the texts they use in their classes? For example, an ancillary product describing career opportunities for students of biological sciences is one topic; are there others? What course(s) would the ancillary be used to support? If you would like to see articles I have written on the topic of career information for students of biological sciences, please feel free to visit these web sites: http://www.mhhe.com/biosci/pae/zoology/featarticle/immuno.mhtml http://www.mhhe.com/biosci/pae/zoology/featarticle/animalbehave.mhtml If you feel it is appropriate to pass this request on to your colleagues, please encourage them to contact me off-list. I'm happy to discuss this work with anyone who is interested in additional information. Thanks for reading this unsolicited message.

The chances are that, if present, the populations are likely to be at rather low densities. Can anyone please advise me on the best way of surveying (on a presence/absence basis) in such situations in order to assess their distribution. So far the most likely option seems to be simply looking under stones etc. but I'm not familiar with working with this group of animals. The following information might help in the election of a method: 1) The aim is to locate the native species Austrapotamobius pallipes but it's possible that other non-native species such as Procambarus clarkii may also be present. 2) The area is quite mountainous(under 1000m and generally calcareous conglomerate) characterized by small streams prone to summer droughts which often leaves the streams as a broken series of isolated pools up to 1m deep. 3) The water level is generally low but can increase dramatically during heavy rains which can ocasionally produce catastrophic floods, the last such episode was in the autumn of 1994. Any advice, or lit. refs. on the matter will be most welcome.

I believe it was something like this: Yes, Linne was his real name, but even he Latinised it to Linnaeus. His own publications all say, "Linnaeus," I think. As he clearly *chose* to publish under a Latinised name for scholarly work (*), and given the retreival problems when you list a reference using a "corrected" name that doesn't appear in the original publications, I think we'd best stick to using Linnaeus. I'm not even going to touch a concurrent debate that went on in the newsgroup at the time: whether or not there should be a ligature joining the "ae" in his name.

The word "aberrant" was used in many of those paper titles. I'd like to look more at Parastracid (sp?) papers to see if the trend is the same. Physiologically, it is reasonable to see a change in crustacean sex from male to female. Charniaux-Cotton (CC) established that removal of androgenic glands (AG) from males usually results in feminization to some extent. This suggests that damage to the androgenic gland (be it from physical or parasite damage, or a developmental error) could result in feminization to some degree. I'm not sure that this exends to having 2 sets of gonoducts for normally gonochoristic animals. CC also concluded that the absence of the AG during development resulted in near complete feminization. So without the AG, the default developmental path is female. In protandrous species (Lysmata seticaudata) CC concluded that the AG doesn't develop until some germ tissue is feminized. The AG later appears and arrests oogenesis (in previt, I think), masculinizing the rest of the gonad. When these animals change sex, the AG deteriorates and supposedly disappears. Inhibition of vitellogenesis ends, and male function disappears. Since much of CC's work was on one shrimp and a gammarid, it would be interesting to verify these phenomena in other hermaphrodites. [For Lysmata amboinensis (first protandrous, then simultaneous) I don't find an AG in female-phase animals. So it is unclear how they maintain male function.] So hermaphrodite crayfish specimens having functional female (but not male) reproduction follows what CC expected, if you think aobut it.

Some of you may remember Pat Iampietro who also works with us but is no longer on Arthropod duty. Pat has given me the great story leads he received on this list. I wanted to post this update on the progress of the project and see if there is any new news people wanted to share. Here is a quick review of the Shape of Life Project. Sea Studios Foundation is working in cooperation with National Geographic television to create an eight hour series for public television called The Shape of Life. The series features each major animal phylum in a hour long exploration of the group. The themes of the program are form and function, evolution, biomechanics, and body plans. The series will use lots of high quality footage, on camera scientists and animation to teach biology in an engaging way. At this point we are still writing and will be going into production in late summer. Research will continue throughout production. I would appreciate any input regarding recent or ongoing research, interesting critters w/ neat & important adaptations, story ideas, individual researchers/contacts, etc. If you, or someone you know, has an interesting crustacean story to tell let us know! Please drop by our website if you'd like to find out more about Sea Studios and the Shape of Life: http://www.seastudios.com Thank you for your time & I look forward to hearing from you! Anna P.S.

Actually what I did was a vasectomy with concurrent remvoval of the fifth coxa and leg, including the male gonopores, on the assumption that the AG was closely associated with the vas deferens or the musclature in the coxae. The results indicated that no gonad inversion occurred and no regeneration of the genital papillae occurred, leading me to believe that the operation did include a successful andrectomy. I do have some remaining questions though about the role of the AG. It seems to be necessary to maintain the presence of the genital papillae but is not necessary to induce their formation in the first place. Thus the maleness of the animal is not dependent on the AG (the animals are sexually differentiated before the AG has developed) but the maintenance of the form of the exoskeleton is. The vas deferens did regenerate normally; only the external form was altered so that the operated males became "neutered". Tom.

Interesting experiment! >From the anatomical illustrations I have, I'm not convinced that you got entire AG in your surgery. The AG is internal, just before the terminal ampullae. From your description, I wouldn't be confident you got it. In an organism as large as a crayfish, it (the AG) should be easy to observe in plain dissections. Is (was) it possible to dissect male gonoducts and look for the AG first? You could even embed the terminal portion and look histologically. It just seems that you should be able to see the structure in large crusties. However, I don't work with crayfish, so... BTW, what is the "genital papillae"? I've seen this term used frequently in fish, but have yet to see it used for crustaceans. Do you mean the terminal ampullae of the sperm duct? > I do have some remaining questions though about the role of the AG.

Don't confuse development and maintenance. :-) I believe that most crustaceans have a puberty molt where external sex charact appear. This is apparently AFTER the differentiation of the gonad. If there is no AG during *development*, Charniaux Cotton claimed that there would be *no* masculinization of the gonad. Some factor that the AG produces is responsible for this. The AG may not be responsible for the maintenance of all portions of the gonad, but it is apparently necessary for development of maleness. The explanation for protandrous species is that the AG is not active/formed until some of the germ cells of the gonad begin to differentiate towards a female pathway. Those female cells are arrested in development and won't do much more until the AG shuts down. Masculinization appears to be a complex process and may vary with the species. Certainly, more that the AG could be involved. It's possible that your species is more fixed in the male pathway. Perhaps the AG develops much faster in gonochoristic species, narrowing that window in time for feminization of any part of the gonad. I may have mislead you (or others) in my general description. I was paraphrasing from the stack of papers in my file by CC and others. I'm not sure that the male gonopore necessarily dissapears in protandrous species. However, there is frequently a change in the pleopod structure. (Appendix masculina disappears, pleopods get broader, more ovigerous hairs...) The presence of AG early in development is certainly key in maturation as a male individual. However, there is evidence of the AG's masculinization of the "brain" (eyestalk or y organ?) from CC and others' work. One paper on Lysmata seticaudata suggested that spermatogenesis in female-phase individuals did continue, but that those animals were not able to mate as males. This suggests that the reversal is not complete. Grafted AG's in female-phase shrimp usually resulted in the cessation oogenesis, and masculinization. The large body of work on "castrator parasites" (blatant plug for Jeff Shields!) of crustaceans suggests that the degree of feminisation of depends on the age of the host. The younger the host, the more dramatic effects by the castrator. This suggests decreased plasticity with age in those species. My overall impression is that some species are more "plastic" than others in the potential to change from male to female sex. For some, the removal/ablation/inhibition of the androgenic gland itself may be enough to cause sex reversal of males. For others, it may have an effect on secondary sex characteristics (appendix masculina), but not on gonad. Clearly there needs to be lots more work on this, and hermaphroditic species are ideal starting points. Crustacean reproductive endocrinology is an area that needs much further study, as well. For example, there is still controversy (last I checked) over what the AG hormone actually is. I think it was Hasegawa who recently (95?) published a paper on the isolation of AG hormone, and suggested that a species-specific assay for it was possible. However, when I wrote her for more details, she explained that they had made a mistake. The compound they had isolated was not AG hormone. Back to square one. It would be nice if the picture was as clear as I had painted it orginally. I apologize if I mislead anyone. - -Curt G.

The aberrations reported in crayfish and other decapods are sometimes the results of physiological damage to the androgenic glands in males. These can be due to parasitic damage or other causes.

Steve, In my experience, salinity and temperature-induced changes are not very evident in material prepared using conventional histological fixatives like Bouin's fluid, or buffered formalin etc. Results are best if you use a typical EM fixative (glutaraldehyde/para-formaldelyde in sodium cacodylate buffer for example) and proceed as for electron microscopy (fix on ice, correct pH and so on) but examine your material in thick resin sections (0.5 micrometer). People that work with Antarctic material often leave the tissues for up to a month in EM-like fixatives although some extraction is sure to occur (but less than with a typical 'histological' fixative). If you use resin-embedded sections you could try a mixture of methylene and toluidine blue in borax (all 1%). Typical stains for paraffin-embedded material include hematoxylin-eosin and Mallory's trichrome for example. You should check out some basic books on histological and electron microscopy techniques.

The genus Parastacus is represented in the Neotropics by 8 species. Originally it was supposed that all of them have two pairs of genital apertures (male and female simultaneously), but Rudolph (J.Crust.Biol., v.15.n.4, p.720-732,1995)verified that only few specimen of Parastacus nicoleti, from Chile, show both openings. P.nicoleti is the first described case of protandrious hermphroditism in Astacidea. Primary females occur in P.nicoleti, that means, specimen that never were males. These animals show only true female openings on the coxae of the 3rd pereiopods. But the majority of females passed through a male phase, keeping atrophied vas deferens and male genital openings during the female phase. In our research group we are studying the native brazilian species Parastacus brasiliensis (first results published: Revista Brasileira de Zoologia v.14,n.2,p.497-509,1997) and P.nicoleti (paper in preparation). All examined specimen, without exception, show both male and female genital openings and two pairs of gonoducts. Some animals with ovotestis were found during the period of reproductive inactivity. The development of the ovarian tissue can begin on the anterior or the posterior part of the gonads. All analysed females have a pair of atrofied (posterior) vas deferens, suggesting that they passed anteriorly trough a male phase, as a consequence of the activity of the androgenic hormone. All males with full functional vas deferens have also a pair of (anterior) atrofied oviducts, suggesting the existence of a potential possibility to become females. There is no critical size to become females. The gonads are totally thoracic, the two bilateral parts completely connected on the saggital plane. The anterior part is vertically elevated, lying just behind the stomach and surrounded by the hepatopancreas. The posterior part lies over se intestine and under the heart. Just my humble contribution.

The crystals never quite dissolved all the way, but most of the colors remained for several months, and were still there the last time I checked. Unfortunately, I don't know if it works with formalin or have a proper recipe. Perhaps you can find papers on its use in fixative, or someone on the list can ellaborate. Good luck, Curt G.

Any ideas? The best way to preserve the coloration patterns in crustacea is by taking a color photo! Then, preserve your specimens in at least 70% EtOH. This way they have a much greater utility for future research. Once specimens are preserved in formalin, they become useless for DNA extraction. Additionally, after some time, the exoskeleton becomes very brittle so the specimens loose value for morphological analyses as well. A photo can become a perminant record of coloration pattern to be tied to a specific specimen. While I realise from personal experience that it is not convenient to carry around a camera and associated photo equipment, the results are well worth the effort. cheers, Keith Crandall =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= To (un)subscribe to CRUST-L: Send (UN)SUBSCRIBE CRUST-L as the message body to MAJORDOMO@VIMS.EDU.

During this work I've noted the usual carotenoid (probably mainly astaxanthin) staining as the ecdysis approaches and would like to quantify this, particularly as the onset of visible pigmentation occurs before premoult. It may be that such a measure could be useful in predicting the onset of premoult. I am aware of the many other roles of astaxanthin etc., so I'm approaching with caution. I would like to know if anybody has any handy hints on blood carotenoid assays? I am using sodium citrate as the anticoagulent (because I am also looking at crude protein) and plan to use the appropriate extinction coefficient plus purified standards to calculate pigment concentration after deproteinisation with perchloric acid. Most of the literature deals with extraction from tissue and shell samples so toluene/acetone-based extracts seem to be used by default as they form part of the extraction cocktail. Note that I am also using a spectrophotometer, not HPLC. I would appreciate any advice, Many thanks, Cheers, Richard - ------------------------------------------- Dr. Richard Musgrove SARDI Aquatic Sciences, P.O.

Dear Volker and colleagues (especially Brazilian ones), I am sure your identifications is correct, Volker. Sesarma curacaoense does distribute into Brazil. For instance, the USNM has a S. curacaoense female from Mapele (Bahia) collected by R. Rathbun. There has been some confusion regarding material of this species and S. crassipes from Brazil. The type material of S. crassipes Cano 1889 is reported to be from Brazil (Pernambuco). However, it was lost and later findings from this species in Brazil (Coelho & Ramos 1972, 1981) turned out to be S. curacaoense (e.g. figured material in Coelho y Ramos-Porto, 1981; see also Abele, 1992). While S. curacaoense is a widely distributed species with a range from southern Florida through the Caribbean, Venezuela, Guianas (and into Brazi), S. crassipes is only known from Brazil (?) and the Caribbean coast of Costa Rica, where I had the chance of collecting it in 1996. I tend to believe that S. curacaoense is the second Sesarma species occurring in Brazil next to S. rectum and told so Gustavo Melo in Brazil. However, most of the museum material in Brazil still seems to be labeled as S. crassipes. Recently at COLACMAR (a meeting of marine biologists celebrated in Santos, Brasil, 1997) Ariadne PRADO from Universidade Estadual Paulista Campus de Rio Claro gave a presentation on: A OCURRENCIA DE SESARMA CURACAOENSE DE MAN, 1892 (CRUSTACEA: BRACHURA: GRAPSIDAE) NO NORDESTE DO BRASIL. There she states that all specimens from most Brazilian collections only consisted of one species, S. curacaoense, expanding the distribution of this species to Espiritu Santo. I don't know if she's following up this investigation (she did not respond to my mail). In any case, I would like to ask all Brazilian colleagues who think they have Sesarma crassipes in their collections or study sites to give those animals a careful look, compare them with Abele 1992 (Smithson. Contrib. Zool.) or send them to me for verification. I have been trying without success to obtain "good" S. crassipes from Brazil and would really like to confirm its presence or absence.

But also as a cautionary note, acidic conditions in EtOH will also degrade the DNA over time making the preservation less than idea for the uses that Keith Crandal stated. For that, you can also buffer the EtOH as above or with Tris-EDTA.

They all look like females to me. Can anyone out > there tell me how to sex these guys. I don't know the species you are working with, but if you can look at these guys under a dissecting scope, you should be able to tell sexes. The pleopods of shrimp are sexually dimorphic. Male shrimp should have longer, thin pleopods (especially #1 and #2). There is a small appendage on the second pleopod that only males carry, however, it may be too small to see without putting on a compound scope. Perhaps you could observe the molts for this (ask me more if you decide to do this.) Females have broader pleopods that may have eggs. If they are molting regularly, observe females for the presence of eggs right after ecdysis. You may even notice the ovary under the carapace, if exoskeleton is transparent. It will be a green to yellow mass visible on the mid dorsal line. Maybe others will have more specific info on this species. Good luck, Curt G.

I have raised also another M. sp. They originated from Kongo and they (~20 specimens at the time) hatch out at bigger stage with out any yolk sac. Any way, both of these species doesn't have any swimming larval stage. The fry is developped to crawl very soon after hatching. I would like to know if this is a characteristic to this genus? In aquarium markets have been several years some Asian transparent FW shrimps called M. lar. The larvae of these shrimps are swimming.

Generally the few (30/female) embryos of the hololimnetic group have a large yolk reserve, hatch in an advanced stage of development, and are benthonic. The abundant (500+/female) larvae of the brackish water dependent group have very few yolk reserves, and undergo a lengthy free swimming developmental sequence. The genus Macrobrachium falls into the family Palaemonidae, although the species are quite distinct from those of the genus Palaemon. See Holthuis (1952) [Occ. Pap. Allan Hancock Found. Pub., Number 12, USC Press] for a detailed analysis of the family in the Americas. I hope this helps.

Many species (eg. Caridina nilotica) are in need of taxonomic revision. It is possible to identify some species just from photographs. However, because colour patterns and markings can be variable, the only certain way of identification is by examining the specimens themselves. The specimen in the photographs can be any of several Caridina species (eg. Caridina japonica, C. typus, etc.) or even small specimens of the old "Atya" group (eg. Ayopsis pilipes, juvenile Atyoida spinipes, etc.). Both Macrobrachium and the atyids (Caridina spp.) contain species whose eggs hatch at different stages of larval development (ie. "normal" (8-12 larval stages, many of which are planktonic), "abbreviated" (<8 larval stages, some of which may be planktonic) and "direct" (<3 larval stages, none of which are planktonic and are all benthonic). Even though egg size of a species can be highly variable, egg size can generally be an indicator of the type of larval development the species exhibits. For example, a species with numerous, small eggs (eg. Caridina gracilirostris, C. typus) suggests prolonged multi-staged planktonic development and possibly saline tolerance or requirement. A species with few large eggs suggests abbreviated or direct development, not requiring saline water for development (eg. high altitude and land-locked species generally exhibit this strategy; Caridina nudirostris, C. fijiana).

Anything wrong with > the address? For some reason I frequently get bounces from European email addresses. A bounce means that a message comes to me (list administator) instead of directly to the list. I usually forward the "bounced" message directly to the list (hence the large number of forwards from me). I've tried a couple of things to minimize bounced messages. For example, I've changed a switch in the software that allows the shortened use of domain names instead of full email addresses (full=@your.place.domain.edu; domain=@domain.edu). I think the hyphen (-) in some addresses may be causing the software problem. Unfortunately, I'm usually too busy to ferret out the problem. If you experience a large number of bounced messages (your message getting forwarded by me), then you may want to unsubscribe then resubscribe. In some cases your system administrator has performed a transparent change to your email address that is not so transparent to some email mailers.

Most early larvae of Caridina are very similar to each other, until they get to later stages and so the diagram may not be of much help. The larvae of C. japonica has been described but I doubt if it would be of much help in your case. What was/is the size of the eggs? Can you count the number of teeth on the rostrum of your adult specimens? This may provide some clue. Apart from measuring the various body parts (ratios) and/or counting certain attributes (eg. no. spines on the dactylus of the pereiopods (legs), spines on the diaresis of the exopod of the uropod (tail fan), etc.), there is very little that can be done to confirm the identity of a Caridina species.

I think it is very good to have such an information since some journals require full titles and others abbreviated ones in reference lists. So I have tried the list of URLs kindly summarized by Carlo Pipitone for us. Trying these, I found out that the first three did not even mention our Journal of Crustacean Biology (Helgolaender wiss. Meeresuntersuchungen would have been much too exotic to even try). CSA is a commercial company that does not allow for tries without subscription (ASFA etc.), and the last url is a link to one of the German library Verbuende (joint systems ???) where I could not find anything like abbreviations of Journal titels.

Unfortunately such online lists are far from complete. Anyway, while thanking Dieter for his specifications, some small corrections to what he states (and to what I reported in my summary) are still needed. 1) CSA site (http://www.csa.com/helpV3/ssrclist.html): you should click the "Aquatic Sciences" link, then one of the "Search" links which appeared on your screen (e.g. "Biological Sciences and Living Resources, ASFA-1"): this will bring you to a search form in which you can either input the abbreviated title or the complete title. You can even use this form in order to search for all journals containing a particular word (e.g. CELL will hit eight journal names). To be quicker, use the following as your bookmark: http://www.csa.com/htbin/srcsrch.cgi?dbs=www.csa.com+210+/wais/indexes/srcjn l/asfa001-src . I guess this site should be complete, because I believe it contains all the journal names reported in ASFA. 2) the last URL must be corrected (sorry for that! something went wrong with the bookmark!). The right one is: http://www.brzn.de/cgi-bin/nph-wwwobnmenu?PAGE=OBNACCESS&LANG=EN&EXT=ON . This page is in English. You should click on "GBV Online Retrieval- and Ordersystem", and a search form will appear. Just input your abbreviation and the complete title will/might be displayed. DO NOT TRY TO BOOKMARK THE SEARCH PAGE - IT WILL NOT WORK! (Don't ask me why!) :-) Sorry for the confusion.

Carlton" Date: Thu, 09 Apr 1998 06:39:20 -0400 Subject: CRUST-L: Biological Invasions (a new journal): Call For Papers Apologies for cross-postings, but a great many folks are on only one of these lists. Papers are now being accepted for the new journal BIOLOGICAL INVASIONS, to be published by Kluwer Academic Publishers (Netherlands). The Editorial Board includes James Carlton (Editor), Ted Case, Mick Clout, Bruce Coblentz, James Drake, Henri Dumont, Bella Galil, Francesca Gherardi, Peter Kareiva, Mark Lonsdale, Richard Mack, Harold Mooney, Peter Moyle, Petr Pysek, Maria Ribera, David Richardson, Daniel Simberloff, Ronald Thresher, Jeff Waage and Mark Williamson. BIOLOGICAL INVASIONS seeks to publish research papers from many disciplines, and we hope to achieve a broad representation from work done in freshwater, marine, and terrestrial systems. Research papers are welcome on the patterns and processes of biological invasions (including both human-mediated introductions and natural range expansions), the ecological consequences of invasions in terms of both interspecific interactions as well as alterations to community and ecosystem structure (such as energy flow modifications, biodiversity, and invasion-mediated extinction), the factors that influence inoculation, establishment, and persistence of invasions and the mechanisms that control the abundance and distribution of invasions. Papers are further encouraged on biogeography, invasion genetics, dispersal vectors, the evolutionary consequences of invasions, and analytical syntheses and overviews of invasive biotas. Also of interest are papers on the theoretical bases of biocontrol, and the release of genetically modified organisms, as these disciplines illuminate the science of biological invasions. Scholarly papers on management and policy issues as they relate to conservation programs and the global prevention or control of invasions are invited as well. Please note that, relative to biocontrol, a new journal (BIOCONTROL) is also being established by Kluwer, under the editorship of Jeff Waage. The Editor and the members of the Editorial Board will also consider proposals for devoting special issues, or a special section of an issue, to papers resulting from conferences or workshops on invasions. We also intend to have a section on "Research Notes", facilitating rapid publication of short papers on topics such as new techniques, the recording of remarkable new invasions, and so forth. The cover of the journal, which will begin as a quarterly, will have with each issue a new photograph (black-and-white, at the moment, unless funds are available for color production from the authors or their institutions) and thus provide an opportunity for workers to submit cover photos for each issues. There are no page charges, and the first 75 reprints are free. For Instructions to Authors, further technical information about the journal, and a free sample copy (available by December 1998 -- January 1999) please contact: Dr. Rene Mijs Kluwer Academic Publishers Dordrecht, The Netherlands email: rene.mijs@wkap.nl Please submit manuscripts to: Journal Editorial Office: Biological Invasions Kluwer Academic Publishers P.

There is a great population of brine shrimp Artemia in China, especially in Tianjin region. The harvest of brine shrimp biomass in Tianjin is about 1,000 tons (fresh weight) in Tianjin. We plan to produce brine shrimp flake. So we are seeking the formula for brine shrimp flake production. Any information is much appreciated.

However, some of our more organized colleagues have already begun to submit manuscripts for consideration in the proceedings volumes of the congress that will come out next year. These too seem to be coming to Amsterdam, but to send them here only delays the log-in process and risks loss in the mails. We have to re-package them and send them on the chairman of the proceedings committee and chief-editor of the proceedings volumes, Dr. Carel von Vaupel Klein.

This crab lives in the lower reaches of rivers but has still retained a larval phase of development which occurs at sea. The recruitment of megalopae of this species is spectacular with thousands upon thousands of individuals clearly visible swimming through estuary mouths and upstream. At weirs and other impoundments in rivers huge masses of the megalopae can be found. The megalopae are by crabs standards very large which makes these events even more spectacular. I have several questions regarding varunid recruitment. Has anyone witnessed such intense recruitment for other varunid crabs? What about other crabs? Is there any literature available on such recruitment? I recall reading a paper on such recruitment and I think that it had to do with a Varuna spp, but I cannot trace the paper. Further, we hope to rear the larvae of this crab but are having some problems finding gravid females. There appear to be none in the freshwater regions of the rivers. I have captured several females swimming out of the mouths of estuaries but none of them have been gravid. Could these crabs have been leaving the estuary for the sea to extrude eggs? Is anyone aware of what type of habitat these crabs would extrude eggs and release larvae? I presume it would need to occur in the lower reaches of estuaries as the probable reason that the larvae leave estuaries is because the larvae are unable to tolerate the low salinities in these systems. Is anyone aware of any publications dealing with Varuna spp larvae? Jose Cuesta has informed me that as far as he is aware there is almost no information on the larval stages of the Varuna spp. I would also appreciate any leads to papers dealing with adult ecology and biology.

The main attraction of the SMC is access to the unique collection of benthic invertebrates from the international BIOICE project (Benthic Invertebrates of Icelandic Waters) which has been operated since 1992. During this time more than 1000 composite samples have been systematically collected in Icelandic waters, at depths from 20 to 2400m. The collection of samples is still in progress. The initial stages of sorting have been carried out, providing an accessible array of most major taxa of benthic invertebrates. The SMC also offers access to a wet-lab with running seawater of exceptional quality. This seawater (constantly 9=B0C, salinity 32.05 PSU) originates= from a well at 50m depth in the lava-field and is totally contaminant-free.=20 The SMC is located in Sandgerdi, a small fishing village on the southwest coast of Iceland (50 km from the capital city, Reykjavik) with excellent facilities for work in a friendly atmosphere. The seashore around the lab harbours a great variety of shore organisms which are easily attainable during low tide (approximately 3.5 m tidal range). =20 For further information and application forms see our web site http://www.hi.is/pub/smc.=20 Scientists from CEC member states and associated states (Norway, Liechtenstein and Israel; Switzerland in negotiation) except from Iceland may submit proposals. Proposals for the first call should be sent as soon as possible, but by 31.05.1998 at the latest, to the Project Manager of The Sandgerdi Marine Centre (Gudmundur V.

Please do not think that my reply is meant to be mean spirited, but having been a Peace Corps Volunteer in South East Asia and seen what mariculture activities do to natural wetlands ecosystems, my gut reaction to your question is one of spiritual pain. Using dozers to push up earth to entrap bodies of water in which fertilizer is dumped to grow algae which are eaten by harvestable animals such as crabs and fish causes irreversible damage to irreplaceable wetlands. I am not sure the profit margin on such operations in the U.S. would be large. You may not be able to compete. Most shrimp sold in the US is imported in from third world countries where the labor costs are low. Would it be possible to use of the property in way that would minimize habitat damage, such as a restaurant or burger-and-beer place utilizing the view to attract customers?

Apart from those reported in literature, I myself wintnessed such phenomenon for various species during field samplings. It seems to be the result of crab megalopae perform synchronized active swmming at certain time of tidal cycles to ride on onshore (or upstream) flows of flood tides for recruitment, such phenomenon also known as Selective tidal Stream Transport (I felt that in coastal waters, apart from tidal currents, megalopae may also use similar machenism to utilize other predictable flows generated by different physical forces). This has been well documented in estuarine crab megalopae and you may refer to some recent publications and literatures cited in those papers for more details. De Vries MC et al (1994) Abundance of estuarine crab larvae is associated with tidal hydrologic variables. Mar Biol 118:403-413 Zeng C & Naylor E (1996) Occurrence in coastal waters and endogenous tidal swimming rhythms of late megalopae of shore crab Carcinus: implications for onshre recruitment. Mar Ecol Prog Ser 136:69-79 As to your second question about ovigerous crab, you may right that your crab migrates to sea for spawning. Such phenomenon has been reported in commercially important crab Scylla serrata and Carcinus (to less extent, migrate to lower esutary for spawning): Hill, B-J (1994) Offshore spawning by the portunid crab Scylla serrata (Crustacea: Decapoda). Mar Biol 120(3): 379-385 Queiroga H et al (1994) Larval abundance patterns of Carcinus in Canal de Mira. Mar Ecol Prog Ser 111:63-72 Besides salinity reasons, the fundamentally course for such offshore spawning may rest on avoidance of planktivorous fishes which aboundance in estuaries. You could refer to Morgan's papers if you are interested. Morgan SG & Christy JS (1997) Planktivorous fishes as selective agents for reproductive synchrony. Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology 209(1-2): 89-101 Morgan SG (1987) Adaptive significance of hatching rhythms and dispersal patterns of estuarine crab larvae: Avoidance of physiological stress by larval export? JOURNAL OF EXPERIMENTAL MARINE BIOLOGY AND ECOLOGY 113(1): 71-78 As to habitat for crab to extrude eggs, from my experience with several crabs, it appears a fine sand or mud substraum is a good one. The reason for this is that crabs normally need to dig into substraum to form hollow area so that they can force newly extruded eggs to attach to their pleopods. Although in Scylla serrata, ovigerous crab are rarelly found in estuaries and coastal waters, however, to reach deep water seems not a pre-requesition for the crab to spawn. We obtained many ovigerous crabs by simply kept matured femals in small tanks (as small as 0.5 square meter) provided with sand substraum. The rates of females extruded their eggs were very high (near 100%) and you may try out this with your Varunid crab.

Unique resources since 1994 Kristineberg Marine Research Station (KMRS), run jointly by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences and G=F6teborg University, is one of the most modern marine stations in the world. The station is situated at the mouth of the 120 m-deep Gullmars fjord, offering convenient access to a rich and diverse flora and fauna and facilitating the collection and transfer of marine organisms. The station was renovated in 1994, and now includes exceptionally modern laboratory facilities, offices for resident and guest scientists and a unique large scale experimental facility. The primary aim of the station is to provide high quality working facilities for both Swedish and foreign guest scientists, and KMRS has a permanent staff of 15 faculty and 25 graduate students. In addition, the station provides facilities for undergraduate and other marine courses, as well as hosting regular scientific meetings. Research at KMRS encompasses a wide field of marine biology and physical-chemical oceanograhy, but also includes geology, medicine, pharmacology and applied technology. The station is open all year round to scientists at all levels and from all countries. Facilities at KMRS The station consists of two laboratory buildings, two research vessels and a hotel unit. The laboratory buildings covering 5 000 m2 are fully equipped and comprise experimental rooms, an auditorium, several conference rooms, offices and a library. Our technical staff and research engineers are experienced and can give advice about the use of equipment. In our workshops we make and maintain high precision field equipment. Two research vessels, of the stern-trawler type, are operated by KMRS. The R/V Arne Tiselius (30 m) is specially designed and equipped for marine research with emphasis on biological oceanography, benthic ecology and benthic/pelagic monitoring. The R/V Oscar von Sydow (12 m) is ideal for the collecting of marine animals. A number of small boats are also available for use at the station. The boat crews have extensive knowledge of the local marine environment and the distribution of marine species and have long experience of collecting animals for experimental research. KMRS has a fully equipped SCUBA facility, and diving forms an important part of the marine research at the station. The library keeps most marine journals and is well provided with species identification literature and handbooks. We also have an extensive reprint collection dating back to the late 19th century. If additional literature is needed, KMRS has a 24-hour document delivery service available. At the station there is lso a data-bank to simplify the collection and identification of marine organisms. The data-bank provides detailed information on collection sites for most invertebrate species and algae in the region. The hotel unit can comfortable accommodate groups of up to 50, and offers self-catering or full board facilities. Easy access to a rich and diverse flora and fauna The Gullmars fjord, with a maximum depth of 120 metres, has an extremely rich flora and fauna due to the great diversity of habitats - - all available within 30 minutes sail from the station. In some areas vertical rocks reach down more than 40 meters and h t a rich flora of macroalgae as well as sessile and mobile animals. These rocks are ideal for research by means of SCUBA diving. Between the rocky areas, both sand and clay seabed habitats extend down to the deep basin. KMRS is situated in a unique marine environment. The surface water down to about 15 - 20 metres is brackish (salinity is about 25 psu) and of Baltic origin. Below this is higher salinity water originating from the Skagerrak and the North Sea. Modern equipment and instrumentation The entire first floor of the new building is designed to provide state-of-the-art experimental conditions. The research vessels dock at the main laboratory entrance enabling undisturbed animal or sediment samples to be brought into the experimental rooms easily -a unique feature of KMRS. KMRS has eleven wet laboratories, ranging in size from 15 to 100 m2, and five of these rooms offer full control of both air and water temperature. Each experimental laboratory has a separate control room for computer equipment and data collection. Technical inventories within the experimental rooms are flexible, allowing equipment to be moved between rooms to allow the design of complex experiments. Three light- and temperature-controlled rooms for algal culturing and a flume tank are also available. The second and third floors contain well-equipped, special designed laboratories for physiology, ecology, microbiology, sedimentology, chemistry and radioisotope handling. Modern basic instruments are available, and our technical staff can help guests with chemical analyses and most practical problems. Throughout the laboratory, 2 separate sea water systems provide clean water from the fjord. Surface water from 6 m is used to mimic variable shallow water conditions, whereas deep water from 30 m provides a stable environment year round. Both water systems are installed in all laboratories as well as in the experimental rooms.

(First reported in McClintock J.B. and J. Janssen. 1990. Pteropod abduction as a chemical defense in a pelagic antarctic amphipod. Nature 346:462-464. Similar to the crabs that carry around sea anemones, except here the Clione do *not* benefit from the association. The opposite, in fact. But-do crusties have their *own* toxins? If not synthesized by themselves, at least sequestered from their food, such as sponges or corals, etc. Like insects do with toxic plants. Then of course, there's the question of venoms.

Among the herbivorous amphipods, many of which do consume algae rich in secondary metabolites, there are, to my knowledge, no published examples of chemical sequestration like that found in terrestrial insects or other marine herbivores such as sea hares. Neither have I heard of any examples of equestration from other chemically rich hosts such as sponges, soft corals or bryozoans. There is one system analogous to McClintock's in which an ampithoid (Pseudamphithoides incurvaria) carries around a small house made of an alga (Dictyota) unpalatable to fish. See Hay et al (1990) Host-plant specialization decreases predation on a marine amphipod: an herbivore in plant's clothing. Ecology 71: 733-743 for details. - -- Alistair G. B.

First, Emerita are seasonal, even in Florida, and are often hard to find before May. Second, it has been documented that mole crab abundance is negatively impacted by heavy foot traffic (can't recall the reference offhand). Third, these critters are pretty nomadic and gregarious, conditions which favor high interannual variability in local abundance (e.g., see some of Adrian Wenner's work in the 1960's).

During an inter-calated year out (academic year 1996/97), I worked at the Oceanarium in St.David's, Pembrokeshire (U.K.) in order to gain first-hand experience of Atlantic marine life and the fishing industry. My final year research project has involved studying moult-associated changes in the muscle tissues of the Edible Crab, Cancer pagurus. I am extremely keen to continue research in marine species, particularly those of relevance to commercial fisheries. I would be very grateful if you could reply with details of appropriate PhD studentships available which you may know of, together with details of the application procedure. Pasted below are my CV and a brief summary of the current crab project for your perusal. I would also greatly appreciate it if this information could be forwarded to prospective PhD supervisors. I shall be very pleased to hear from you at your earliest convenience, Yours Sincerely, James Williams. The Effect of The Moulting Cycle on the Quality of Crab Meat General This preliminary study is being carried out by James Williams as a Third Year Project and will contribute to his finals in Hons Biology at the University of Nottingham. During an inter-calated year out (academic year 1996/97), James worked at the Oceanarium in St.David's, Pembrokeshire under the supervision of Mr.Gary Cross, the Director. In spare time, James researched aspects of crab biology of relevance to the shellfish industry, and in particular in ways of discriminating between individuals rich in meat and those with little meat. Studies were conducted on the European Edible Crab, Cancer pagurus. The intermoult stages of Brachyurans appears to be critical in determining meat content and quality. The major phase of this project is concerned with looking at the cellular and molecular changes underlying these tissue alterations. The supervisor for these studies is Dr.Mike J.Dowdall, a Biochemist with research interests in cell physiology and with considerable experience in working with marine species. He has spent a total of eight summers working at the Marine Biological Laboratory at Woods Hole and has been a member of their corporation since 1974. Research Literature searches reveal that virtually nothing has been published on the cellular and molecular changes occurring in crab muscle during the intermoult period between consecutive moults (ecdyses). This in itself is very surprising, since during each cycle there must be massive changes in the cellular architecture which must be reflected in biochemical ones. These changes must be comparable to those which are seen generally in animal development. It is known that developmental changes involve a constant, ongoing re-organisation of the cellular populations and this is achieved by alterations in the expression of different families of proteins encoded for by the genotype (co-ordinate gene switching). Post-development, a more stable phenotype emerges and gene-switching on this scale is not seen - although it still occurs periodically in specialised tissues (e.g. those under control by hormones of the steroid category). The moulting process in arthropods is known to be regulated by hormones of the ecdysone family and indeed co-ordinate gene switching was first demonstrated in insects. In insects the spectrum of gene products (proteins) after ecdysone treatment is quite different from that seen before. It has therefore been proposed that changes in protein expression be looked for in crab muscle as a function of the "moult-cycle stage". Accurate moult-staging is a major problem faced by the shellfish industry and academics alike; traditionally, it has been impossible to accurately predict meat quality and content of intermoult crabs. After recognition of this problem, which has both major ecological and economic implications for the fishery, a novel quantitative method for moult-staging was recently devised and has been used in this study. This was developed at the Oceanarium and depends on total body mass of the crab relative to its size. A commercially available electronic device for this ("Crab-Check") is currently under development. The biochemical measurements involved in this project focus on the activities of a number of key enzymes which are likely to change during the re-organisation of muscle in the cycle. These are mitochondrial, lysosomal and cytoplasmic enzymes (e.g. fumarase, acid phosphatase and alanine-pyruvate transaminase) and also include those which are important to the energetics of normal muscle function (e.g. arginine kinase and lactate dehydrogenase). In addition, activities not normally found in muscle, but present in tissues which are nutrient donors, are also being measured (e.g. alkaline phosphatase). These may be correlated to muscle tissue wet / dry masses, protein content, and to measurements of muscle changes which occur during cooking of crabs at the various stages. The biochemical information might help to focus on the specific changes occurring in the muscle tissue during the cycle; these may ultimately and importantly relate to meat content and quality. Experimental Design Muscle of the crab claw is used as being representative of the whole muscle mass of the crab. Mr.Gary Cross co-ordinated the arrangements for obtaining crabs from local commercial fishermen, and a sample of 45 crabs were caught for the study on a trip during December 1997. Prior to collection, pilot experiments on enzyme activity in Shore Crab (Carcinus maenas) muscle were conducted in Nottingham on fresh material. These were designed to test optimal conditions for tissue homogenisation and low temperature storage, as well as establishing =91baseline=92 activities of the specific enzymes studied. The C. pagurus collection involved measuring mass and size dimensions of the crabs, followed by removal and freezing of claws from 25 =91calibrated=92 individuals. These were transported to Nottingham for laboratory analysis. Claw tissue homogenates were made for each crab and are stored at -80=B0C. This material forms the tissue bank from which data sets on individual enzyme activities and other muscle proteins are being established. The 25 crabs selected fall into groups of individuals at different stages in the intermoult cycle, and hence it should be possible to determine the biochemical basis for the large-scale changes which occur.

In this respect we would like to have access to all the relevant research in this field for this subregion. We have access to all (we think) the relevant research conducted by South African scientists (which by the way is minimal) and will shortly be in contact with all marine and estuarine researchers in South Africa to gain an indication of present research projects and foci. This message is therefore aimed primarily at foreign researchers. I am aware of several foreigners who have and are conducting work on Decapods in Africa south of the equator. I am not however certain as to whether there is a larval component to any of this research, and would appreciate a response from anyone working in this field, irrespective of the spp concerned and the type of work conducted, just so long as it involves decapod larvae in the southern African region. Any work that may have been done in the past would also be appreciated as well as the addresses of workers who may not subscribe to the newsgroup. Furthermore, if anyone has or knows of work planned for the future, I would also appreciate information in this respect. For the purposes of this paper we have set the limits of Southern Africa as being the Cunene River (border between Namibia and Angola) on the west coast and the same approximate latitude on the east coast (ie just north of Beira, Mocambique). I feel that it is probably best that respondents reply to me directly via email and I will then supply a summary of the info I received to the newsgroup should anyone be interested.

As some of you may be aware the literature in this respect is expanding, particularly for brachyuran crabs (see several papers by Klaus Anger and co-workers). However, as far as I am aware, there are only four references in this respect for thalssinid larvae viz Thessalou-Legaki wt al. 1992. Effects of starvation and food density on the larval development of Calianassa tyrrhena (Decapoda, Thalassinidea); Forbes: Callianassa krausii - PhD and Descriptive paper; Shy and Chan, 1996. Complete larval develpment of the edible mud shrimp Upogebia edulis Ngoc-Ho and Chan; Gurney, 1937. Notes on some decapod crustacea from the Red Sea.II The larvae of Upogebia savignyi Strahl. Could any members tell me whether I have missed any references? I realise that this newsgroup is not the forum for a quick literature search, but a literature search by keywords would not have revealed the last three mentioned works as they mention merely as anecdotal info that these larvae are highly lecithotrophic and do not need to feed throughout development. My literature search also suggests that our general understanding of thalssinid larval ecology is almost non existent (excluding larval morphology). Can anyone else confirm this?

Right about now the first few small individuals are starting to show up (from California?). Typically, tiny ones arrive in the spring and the size of the population and individuals both increse through the summer. Occasionally, though, the beach remains devoid of them all year. Two years ago, the only time I have seen it, the population underwent synchronous molting, so there were literally millions of cast shells in windrows along the beach. By sometime in the fall each year, they are all gone. So far as I know, no one has studied the population dynamics, so it remains unknown whether the crabs migrate south in the winter, or they die out and larvae of another population are carried in anew from somewhere to the south each spring. Possibly something similar happens to your population.

Actually, there's pretty good circumstantial evidence of this. I don't know if Birgus are eating to avoid predation, but on islands where this family of plants is common, natives will tie up Birgus or put them in a drum for several days to cleanse their systems. There is also a paper testing the toxicity of Birgus tissue fractions to mice, and the hepatopancreas of these crabs was quite poisonous. It wasn't clear which plant was involved. I looked into this literature to prepare a (unfunded) proposal examining the effect of rat poison or Birgus. I recall there was a Holthuis paper on toxic crustaceans too. I'll dig up the bibiography and post it. Rats often eat young crabs, and older crabs often eat rats. It seems that the plant alkaloids involved did not affect the crab much, but can have an effect on vertebrates. - -Curt > > Phil > > >Under certain circumstances, Birgus can become poisonous if it has been > >feeding on toxic plants. > > > >Reyne, A. 1939.

Or the gingko's not doing its job. Which toxic plants are the crabs eating? If the crabs are just toxic because they're eating toxic plants, and they're not actually selecting the plants for defensive purposes, you'd expect the hepatopancreas to be toxic, and nothing else. If the crabs were selecting toxic plants, I would predict that they would pump toxin into their leg muscles and maybe hemolymph. This would do them some good for defense-sacrifice a leg to the predator, and get away. Just having a poison hepatopancreas won't help much without warning coloration. How much crab cannibalism is there? Phil >Actually, there's pretty good circumstantial evidence of this.

Most are Xanthidae, but Portunidae, Grapsidae, Majidae, and Parthenopidae were also represented. Toxins identified include Saxitoxin, Paralytic Shellfish Poisons, Tetrodotoxin, and Palytoxin. Our belief is that all these types of toxin are taken in via the food chain - some seem to be reliably poisonous (such as at least some Demania species), while for most, toxicity varies according to place and probably season. In general we felt that most small coral reef crabs should be treated with suspicion. Grazers are presumably going to be the most likely to pick up toxins, but predators such as Thalamita (Portunidae) also had toxins, so in some cases amplification may occur. I haven't looked at the literature for a while but it seems there are no records of this phenomenon outside the Indo-West Pacific. With so many toxins involved, one would expect this process to be happening on Carribean reefs as well. Has anyone ever looked I wonder?

Looking at some of the unpublished examples of chemically defended crustaceans that have been mentioned here makes you wonder if the lack of reports is because we have not looked hard enough. My recollection is that only pea crabs have been claimed to produce chemical defenses of any sort (this is in JEMBE, but I can't remember the year nor the authors). A particular mucus film on the carapace of the crab was argued to serve as defense, and it was only found on one of the larval stages. However, this paper lacked the critical tests that would conclusively demonstrate the presence of a chemical defense. For those larger crabs that have been claimed toxic, the accumulation of dinoflagellate metabolites is often responsible for the reports, most of which deal with medical cases (I did not know about Birgus latro, though). Whether this has an antipredatory effect in nature it is unknown. It certainly would mean death to the crab, since the toxins accumulate inside the body. Unless there is kin selection, this would not be much of an effective strategy. However, if there is sublethal predation, this may work. It is not unusual for a crab to lose a leg or two, and if the predators learn to avoid the animal there may be a net benefit. A similar argument has been made by Rikk Kvitek and coworkers about butter clams which accumulate dinoflagellate toxins, and which suffer from siphon nipping by natural enemies (Kvitekk and Beitler. 1988. J. Mar. Res. 4:629-636; Kvitekk. 1991. Mar. Biol. 111:369-374). I don't know of similar studies conducted on crustaceans. As far as "behavioral sequestration", a term often used to describe cases like Philip Oshel and Alistair Poore mention, in which defense is by association, there are a few reports. As Alistair pointed out, the amphipod Pseudoampithoides incurvaria makes a domicile from a chemically defended alga (Dictyota bartrayesii)and gets protection from fish. Interestingly, Barnard and Karaman (1991) mention that both Pseudoampithoides species described show the same behavior, but the chemistry of the interaction has only been studied in the case of P. incurvaria (Hay et al. 1990). McClintock's pteropod abduction by a hyperiid amphipod is similar. However, only a percentage of the amphipods in that paper had pteropods, and I have been told that these amphipods will carry on their backs a number of different things, so the chemical defense could be fortuitous. More recently, a friend of mine has demonstrated that the decorator crab, Libinia dubia, will selectively cover itself with a chemically defended brown seaweed, and that the chemical compound that deters feeding in fish is the one that stimulates decoration. That paper is in press in Ecology. Something similar could be happening with hermit crabs that gain added defense when their shells are covered by hydroids or with anemones, but again, the chemistry remains to be studied. As Philip Oshel notes, it is interesting to see that sequestration, which is so common in other arthropods, appears to be so rare in crustaceans. I wonder if anyone would care to comment on why that may be. Are the anatomical or metabolic adaptations that allow insects to sequester metabolites, missing from crustaceans? Intuitively I would say yes, but I would rather hear it from someone who knows. I doubt we know enough about crustacean physiology for some of the more exotic, non comercially important groups, but we know a fair deal about crustacean physiology for several of the larger species, as well as insects. Any ideas, any takers?

Costello" Date: Mon, 27 Apr 1998 21:51:33 GMT Subject: CRUST-L: biodiversity and research Some news which may interest crustys because crustaceans are one of the most widespread components of biodiversity: 1. A European Science Foundation study group has recently produced a plan for marine biodiversity research. It is available on the web at: http://www.esf.org/mpb/Marbio.html 2. The Communication of the European Commission to its Parliament concerning how the Convention on Biological Diversity would be implemented by the European Union is available at http://europa.eu.int:80/en/comm/dg11/docum/9842en.pdf This is a most important document and covers all sectors, including research. An email conference to discuss this communication will be starting soon (See point 4 below). 3. The European Commission environmental research section of DGXII funded a Working Group on Research and Biodiversity (EWGRB) in 1997 which produced a report available on the world wide web. This report is being used to direct research funding on biodiversity in Europe. Information is available on the web at http://www.oden.se/~ewgrb http://www.algonet.se/~bear http://www.geocities.com/HotSprings/Spa/5711/index.html There was limited marine and freshwater input to this group. However it is still possible to contribute to its debate through an electronic conference which has led on from the EWGRB to start shortly (see point 4 below). I will be chairing the 'fisheries' section but the scope of this is as wide as we wish, i.e. all marine activities which may be affected by or may be effected by fisheries. Offers of contributions are very welcome. 4. An electronic conference to discuss biodiversity research needs is to be held from 4 May until 16 June 1998. One can participate by (a) joining an email discussion group (i.e. a 'listserver' where messages sent to a single address are automatically bounced back to all persons who have 'subscribed'). You can subscribe to the email listserver by sending the message SUBSCRIBE BIODIV to listserver@e-mail.gencat.es, or through the web site (see below). You will receive an automatic reply providing additional instructions. (b) visiting (reading) the web site and making contributions to the 'discussion Forum' via this same web site. 5. The European Commission Statistical Office in collaboration with the European Environment Agency has produced a suite of indicators of pressures on the environment covering all sectors. A full list of the methodology for deriving each indicator is available at Eurostat indicators of pressure on marine and coastal biodiversity (http://www.telecom.es/tau/sheets.htm). good reading Mark.

I agree here, especially when I consider the results from my experiments. Upogebia africana larvae show a really high degree of lecithotrophy, although larval development is not completely lecithotrophic, again here facultative lecithotrophy is NB as the effects of starvation are clearly evident on later development. Interestingly, a fourth zoeal stage appears under intense starvation.

Regarding venomous caprellids. You are probably referring to a publication of Wetzel (1932) who reported that a spine on the second pair of gnathopods was connected to glandular tissue and that this appeared to be venomous in nature. Additional evidence was provided by Costa (1960) stating that the prey of Phtisica mariner was unable to struggle shortly after being seized, thus indicating venom being introduced. However this is only cercumstancial evidence, since most caprellid species do not use the second gnathopods in capturing prey, but the first gnathopods and the antennas. Another problem is that the term poison tooth was used by P. Mayer 40 years before the publication of Wetzel. For whatever reason I do not know. Thus the question if caprellids are venomous still stand unresolved I am afraid. Personally I doubt it.

I'd forgotten the references (and mine are all buried in the book-box orogeny that is my library right now), but the reference to Wetzel sounds like what I was remembering. The venomous nature of a gland's secretion cannot be determined by histology or histochemistry. Immunocytochemistry would do the job, if anyone had antibodies to possible venoms. Otherwise, studies such as Costa's that Kim referenced need to be done. "Poison tooth" may have been used if Mayer saw a pore in or at the base of the spine/spiniform seta on gn2 that sits next to where the distal end of the terminal segment contacts the penulitmate segment when the former closes. (I've forgotten the Official Names for the moment. Need more gingko.) Phil > Regarding venomous caprellids.

My wife and I were swimming along the reef crest when we were "surrounded" by a large number of pteropods, and extremely small gelatinous creatures (comb and other jellies). My wife's swim suit acted to filter the jellies onto her bosom where she was stung repeatedly. Chest hairs protected me from all of the stings. We both wore sting suits thereafter. In a similar occurrence, I had a blue bottle (Physalia) tentacle brush across my face and was saved from a burn by the fact that I hadn't shaved for two days. Guess there's something to say for being a grubby male :-) Cheers, Jeff =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= To (un)subscribe to CRUST-L: Send (UN)SUBSCRIBE CRUST-L as the message body to MAJORDOMO@VIMS.EDU.

I am starting a project on the ecology and distribution of crayfish in the mountains of West-Central PA. To my knowledge, next to nothing has been done here since Ortmann in 1906(5?). (I am converting myself from a marine to an aquatic ecologist, a wise decision considering my location.) After doing some reading and talking informally to people at meetings, I have come to two conclusions: 1) It is incredibly difficult to ID crayfish in the field below genus. 2) Forget about IDing females at all. So, now my questions: 1) Am I being overly pessimistic? (I sure hope so...) Is there a way to ID below genus in the field and can one ID females, at least to genus? I am trying to avoid sacrificing every crayfish we collect just so that we can ID them. 2) Does a dichotomous key to crayfish genera exist? I have Horton-Hobbs (1989) checklist and some more recent stuff, but haven't found a good key. (Though the image of myself and my undergraduate researchers perched next to a bucket of crayfish while flipping through all those pictures of reproductive appendages is amusing, it would get pretty old after a couple of weeks.) 3) Does anybody know if there is some work in Western PA that I have missed during my computer searches, like dissertations or unpublished work? 4) If field ID's are too difficult to do, what do those of you who work on crayfish do about that? Any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated. Feel free to respond privately and I will post a summary later if anybody is interested. Karen *************************************** Karen T.

Thanks, Jeff - ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Martin Thiel Subject: Ocypode quadrata Hello Decapodologists, During the last few weeks we had a recurring little conversation around our coffee-pot. We were wondering about the reproduction of Ocypode quadrata. Despite being a very common crab, it appears to be difficult to track down information on its reproductive seasonality and larval settlement. A friend of mine who is working on this topic had searched several databases, but could not find any good leads. We are convinced that there must be information out there about Ocypode quadrata and its reproductive seasonality and larval settlement, and we would appreciate any hints. Thank you very much.

It was a typical reaction that she has to crustaceans, but I was amazed that such a tiny little skinny body would cause such a problem. The Revenge of the Caprellidae!

It is well understood that they increase the size of the external reproductive = body by moults (1,2) However, some species are capable of drastic increases in size in between moults. In one species I studied, it seemed as if the small parasite had "reserves" of epithelium and cuticle infolded as bars which were later stretched and became true part of the exterior lining as the parasite increased in size (3) Finally, the internal root system of rhizocephalan barnacles is covered by a very delicate cuticle. This root system grows extensively but is NEVER moulted (4) Best regards Jens (1) Ritchie LE; H=F8eg JT. 1981.

(Arrive/equip. check: Sun. Aug 2) Dr. Richard Wahle Bigelow Laboratory for Ocean Sciences >From kelp beds to urchin barrens, the diverse subtidal habitats of the central Maine coast is the backdrop for a concentrated experience in underwater ecological research methods at Bigelow Laboratory. This course is geared toward upper level undergraduates and beginning graduate students desiring an overview of time-tested as well as cutting-edge methods of population, community, and behavioral ecology. We will discuss methods used in underwater observation, habitat description, and hypothesis testing. Morning briefings and evening discussions will give case studies to illustrate and critique current methods. For example, we will deal with how to customize quadrat and transect survey techniques to the demographic question at hand; the statistical principals behind minimum sample size determination; measurement of habitat patchiness and structural complexity; photographic analysis of attached biota; and in situ video analysis of fish or lobster behavior. Divers will work in teams to apply these methods while contributing to an ecological data base of sites in surrounding waters. Class size: 8 students for 4 dive teams. Prerequisites: Undergraduate courses biology and ecology or permission of instructor Certifications: Nationally recognized diver certification, CPR, First Aid Diver health/injury insurance - DAN membership - covers hyperbaric injury. ************************************************************************** Satellite Imagery as a Resource for Learning A course for teachers and students 10-21 August Cynthia Erickson Bigelow Laboratory for Ocean Sciences This two-week course provides an introduction to satellite imagery and image analysis techniques. Participants will explore satellite images and the software needed to interpret them. This course covers the nature of a digital image, electromagnetic radiation, spectral bands, reflectance patterns of land/ocean features and specific training for using the software provided. Through hands-on applications, students will learn to interpret multispectral signatures and cluster and classify an image. Accessory technologies such as GIS and GPS will be introduced. Emphasis is on the use of satellite imagery as a resource for learning. Enrollment limited to 20 students. ************************************************************************** Flow and Imaging Cytometry for the Aquatic Sciences 21 September - 2 October Dr. Michael Sieracki Bigelow Laboratory for Ocean Sciences Dr. Gunter Valet Max-Plank Institute for Biochemistry This course will cover the application of flow and imaging cytometry techniques for the study of marine microorganisms - including prokaryotes, protozoa, and phytoplankton. Basics of flow cytometry and image analysis will be covered, but emphasis will be on advanced topics such as imaging-in-flow and the use of functional fluorescent probes for measuring cytochemical processes and the intracellular physical-chemical state of living cells. Participants are encouraged to develop small projects that can make use of the resources of the Center for Culture of Marine Phytoplankton and the flow and imaging cytometry instruments here at Bigelow. ************************************************************************** Marine Microbial Ecology 5-16 October Dr. Bess Ward (1997 Hutchinson Medal Winner) Univ. California Santa Cruz Focus of this course will be on bacterial transformations in biogeochemical cycles; including conventional as well as molecular techniques to study environmental microbiology. Course includes field work (day cruise) and analysis of field samples (detection and characterization of bacteria using DNA-based methods, as well as measurement of in situ activities). Lectures will focus on the current literature and topics of current controversy. William M.

Cheers, Jeff - ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Just got this from the mac.announce newsgroup. I'll leave it to you to decide if it should be posted to the mailing lists. Phil [ the following article was posted by Gene Spafford to inform the Macintosh community about a new "critter", a worm that was given the name "Autostart 9805" by the anti-viral software community. ---Werner (CSMA moderator) ] - -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- The Macintosh world has been largely free of new Mac-specific viruses and their kin over the past few years. The last real virus to emerge was in April of 1994, when the INIT-29-B virus appeared. In 1995, we saw the Hypercard HC-9507 virus appear, and the first Microsoft Word macro virus. Thereafter, except for residual infections of old viruses, the only worrisome Macintosh-specific malware for almost 3 years have been macro viruses of Microsoft software. (Contrast this with as many as ten thousand new viruses for that other PC platform in the same time period.) Our respite has ended for the time-being. New Macintosh Worm Discovered (Autostart 9805) 4 May 1998 Virus: Autostart 9805 Damage: Adds invisible files to every disk partition and periodically causes extensive disk activity (and network activity if network disks are mounted). Will overwrite some data files with random data. Spread: PowerPC systems running the MacOS or later and with mounted HFS or HFS+ volumes. Initial infection usually requires QuickTime 2.0 or above installed. ==== Autostart-9805 is technically a worm program. It does not change any existing program or file to spread itself. Instead, it copies itself to other disk partitions so that it becomes active on other systems. The first reported appearances of this software were in Hong Kong, and it has spread very rapidly among the desktop publishing (DTP) community there. The worm can be transmitted via almost any HFS or HFS+ disk volume, including floppy disks, most removable cartridges drives, MO disks, CD-WORM disks, hard disks and even disk images. The code requires a PowerPC-based system running MacOS -- a 68K-based system will fail to run the code. The worm will also spread across networks to any mounted network file partition. Infected disks contain an invisible application file named "DB" (type 'APPL', creator '????', with the "invisible" attribute set) in the root directory, with autostart set. When the infected disk is mounted on a PowerPC MacOS system running QuickTime 2.0 or later, the "DB" application is launched automatically if the AutoStart feature is enabled in QuickTime. It then copies itself to the Extensions folder of the active System. It changes the name of the copy to "Desktop Print Spooler" and the type to 'appe' (do NOT confuse this file with the visible and legitimate "Desktop Printer Spooler" extension); the worm file is also invisible, and when running is not shown in the applications menu. It then restarts the computer system. The worm, in the form of the invisible application in the extension folder, is automatically launched whenever the computer system starts up. About every thirty minutes, it examines the mounted volumes. If any are not already infected, it attempts to infect them by copying itself to the root directory (renamed back to "DB" and type 'APPL') and setting up the AutoStart field in the boot block. Most writable volumes are successfully infected. The notable exception is server volumes, which do not have the necessary boot block fields for AutoStart. The worm file is copied to writable server volumes, but it does not get launched when the volume is mounted. Note that once the extension version of the worm is in place, turning off QuickTime makes no difference -- the virus will continue to load and spread as a result of being activated at system boot time. Damage After checking the mounted volumes for infection, the worm begins searching for certain files on each disk. Files ending with "data", "cod", and "csa" (case insensitive) are targeted if the data fork is larger than 100 bytes. Files ending with "dat" are targeted if they are larger than about 2 Mbytes (resource + data forks). When a targeted file is found, it is damaged by overwriting the data fork (up to approximately the first 1 Mbyte) with garbage. The first byte is always set to zero, and this serves as a flag to bypass the file on subsequent passes. Symptoms The worm has numerous symptoms that make it reasonably easy to identify: 1) The system unexpectedly restarts after mounting a diskette or other volume. This will only happen when the initial infection occurs. 2) The "DB" application name flashes briefly in the menu bar when a disk is mounted. 3) The presence of an invisible application file named "DB" on the root of disk volumes, or the invisible "Desktop Print Spooler" file in the extensions folder. Any file or disk utility program (such as ResEdit) that shows invisible files in its file selection dialogs can be used to check for the files. Be sure not to confuse the legitimate "Desktop Printer Spooler" file with the worm. 4) A process named "Desktop Print Spooler" is found (use Process Watcher or Macsbug). 5) Extensive, unexplained disk activity every 30 minutes. Prevention The risk of infection can be effectively eliminated by manually disabling the AutoStart option in the QuickTime Settings Control Panel. This will not help if the system is already infected. It will also not prevent an infected Mac from creating the invisible "DB" files on any partitions you share with them on a network. Versions of QuickTime prior to 2.5 do not seem to have a way to disable autoplay. You should disable QuickTime or upgrade to a recent version if you have an old release. Note: recent versions of QuickTime also have an "Enable Audio CD AutoPlay" option. This option can be left on. Note that disabling the autostart feature does not have any affect on the normal operation of QuickTime, and can be safely turned off. Removal & Recovery Most of the major anti-virus developers have prepared updates to their software. The remaining vendors will undoubtedly have updates soon. Users are *strongly* encouraged to run current, up-to-date anti-virus software, and to regularly incorporate vendor-supplied updates. In the absence of such software, you can remove the virus using the following steps. However, you will need to restore damaged data files from backups (you *do* make regular backups, don't you?). 1) Reboot your system with extensions off. (Reboot while pressing the shift key.) 2) Start the Apple "Find File" utility. Use it to search all volumes for files whose name is exactly "DB" and which are invisible. (To select for visibility, hold down the option key when clicking on the "Name" pop-up menu; use "more choices" to select both search criteria.) Drag found files from the Find window to the trash. 3) Search again, for the "Desktop Print Spooler" file. Delete it also. (Be sure to NOT delete the legitimate "Desktop Printer Spooler"!!). 4) Empty the trash. 5) Open the "QuickTime Settings" control panel and disable autostart unless there is some significant reason you need it. 6) Restart.

I don't know whether it is still in print, but it was/is published by Robt. E. Krieger Publishing Company in Huntington, NY, in 1980. I suspect that it is probably what you are looking for, although you'll need to update the information for your students (Kaestner's cut-off for information for the book was 1966). Another excellent possibility is Fred Schram's "Crustacea" (1986), published by Oxford University Press (with an office in NY). This is more up-to-date and detailed than Kaestner's, but it depends on what you are looking for. Reviews of Schram's book can be found in J. Crust. Biol. 7(1):200-201, J. Crust. Biol. 7(4):781-782, and American Scientist 75:295-296. Don't be surprised to be frustrated in your search -- I was when I looked for a text for my crustacean course many years ago.

There weren't that many replies, so I left them intact. It's still somewhat lengthy, though. The upshot seems to be, yes there are toxic crusties, and maybe there are some venomous ones, but we really don't know much about this. The apparent lack of many toxic/venomous crustaceans is very interesting, especially given the ubiquity of defensive toxins and offensive/defensive venoms in arthropods and inverts generally (and even those abberant things, "vertebrates"). This suggests first off that we are just missing the poisonous crusties. It also leads to the speculation that crusties with heavy raptorial appendages (crabs, lobsters, stomatopods) don't need venom, analogous to uropygids, amblypygids, and solpugids among arachnids. But they could still use defensive toxins-ask any octopus. But even if that is true, what about all the rest of the crusties? Why aren't any of them venomous? Or toxic, either synthesized or sequestered in their diet, from toxic organisms? Why don't filter-feeders in particular have defensive toxins? I wouldn't include in this question crusties that become toxic from their diet, but keep the toxin in the hepatopancreas. This would be accidental accumulation, and then keeping the toxin away from the rest of the crab's (e.g.) tissues. A defensive toxin that doesn't work until the owner is dead isn't much use-especially not without warning coloration or behaviors. There seems to be a serious issue here in need of work. And given the grant monies available for research into materia medica-and so toxic and venomous critters-from governments and pharmaceutical companies, maybe people ought to take an interest in this question? Phil DANIEL ABED-NAVANDI : Regarding toxic (or not ?) caprellids I can offer anecdotal support: While sorting dreged material I was stung by an animal which turned out to be a small caprellid. The pain I felt in my finger was similar to that of a bee-sting and lasted for a few hours. Regards Daniel _______________________________________ Daniel Abed-Navandi Department for Marine Biology Institute for Zoology University of Vienna Niel L. Bruce : A nice "review" of toxic crustaceans is: Llewellyn, L & Davie, P., 1987. Crabs and other crustaceans. Pp 127-135. In: 'Toxic Plants and Animals. A Guide for Australia.' Eds. Covacevihc, J, Davie, P. & Pearn, J, Queensland Museum: Brisbane. Pp 504. The ISBN 0 7242 2381 9 Niel L. Bruce 138 Carmody Road, St Lucia, Qld 4067, Australia. Phone: (07) 3217 8054; e-mail: Edwin Cruz-Rivera ecruzriv@email.unc.edu: An interesting question... Looking at some of the unpublished examples of chemically defended crustaceans that have been mentioned here makes you wonder if the lack of reports is because we have not looked hard enough. My recollection is that only pea crabs have been claimed to produce chemical defenses of any sort (this is in JEMBE, but I can't remember the year nor the authors). A particular mucus film on the carapace of the crab was argued to serve as defense, and it was only found on one of the larval stages. However, this paper lacked the critical tests that would conclusively demonstrate the presence of a chemical defense. For those larger crabs that have been claimed toxic, the accumulation of dinoflagellate metabolites is often responsible for the reports, most of which deal with medical cases (I did not know about Birgus latro, though). Whether this has an antipredatory effect in nature it is unknown. It certainly would mean death to the crab, since the toxins accumulate inside the body. Unless there is kin selection, this would not be much of an effective strategy. However, if there is sublethal predation, this may work. It is not unusual for a crab to lose a leg or two, and if the predators learn to avoid the animal there may be a net benefit. A similar argument has been made by Rikk Kvitek and coworkers about butter clams which accumulate dinoflagellate toxins, and which suffer from siphon nipping by natural enemies (Kvitekk and Beitler. 1988. J. Mar. Res. 4:629-636; Kvitekk. 1991. Mar. Biol. 111:369-374). I don't know of similar studies conducted on crustaceans. As far as "behavioral sequestration", a term often used to describe cases like Philip Oshel and Alistair Poore mention, in which defense is by association, there are a few reports. As Alistair pointed out, the amphipod Pseudoampithoides incurvaria makes a domicile from a chemically defended alga (Dictyota bartrayesii)and gets protection from fish. Interestingly, Barnard and Karaman (1991) mention that both Pseudoampithoides species described show the same behavior, but the chemistry of the interaction has only been studied in the case of P. incurvaria (Hay et al. 1990). McClintock's pteropod abduction by a hyperiid amphipod is similar. However, only a percentage of the amphipods in that paper had pteropods, and I have been told that these amphipods will carry on their backs a number of different things, so the chemical defense could be fortuitous. [Interjected comment by Oshel: this possibility was tested for by McClintock and Janssen. The Hyperiids are actively selecting Clione, not just grabbing anybody that comes along.] More recently, a friend of mine has demonstrated that the decorator crab, Libinia dubia, will selectively cover itself with a chemically defended brown seaweed, and that the chemical compound that deters feeding in fish is the one that stimulates decoration. That paper is in press in Ecology. Something similar could be happening with hermit crabs that gain added defense when their shells are covered by hydroids or with anemones, but again, the chemistry remains to be studied. As Philip Oshel notes, it is interesting to see that sequestration, which is so common in other arthropods, appears to be so rare in crustaceans. I wonder if anyone would care to comment on why that may be. Are the anatomical or metabolic adaptations that allow insects to sequester metabolites, missing from crustaceans? Intuitively I would say yes, but I would rather hear it from someone who knows. I doubt we know enough about crustacean physiology for some of the more exotic, non comercially important groups, but we know a fair deal about crustacean physiology for several of the larger species, as well as insects. Any ideas, any takers?

Davie P.Davie@mailbox.uq.edu.au: In the review that Neil Bruce referred to we recorded 22 species of crabs in 5 families that had toxins in the flesh. Most are Xanthidae, but Portunidae, Grapsidae, Majidae, and Parthenopidae were also represented. Toxins identified include Saxitoxin, Paralytic Shellfish Poisons, Tetrodotoxin, and Palytoxin. Our belief is that all these types of toxin are taken in via the food chain - some seem to be reliably poisonous (such as at least some Demania species), while for most, toxicity varies according to place and probably season. In general we felt that most small coral reef crabs should be treated with suspicion. Grazers are presumably going to be the most likely to pick up toxins, but predators such as Thalamita (Portunidae) also had toxins, so in some cases amplification may occur. I haven't looked at the literature for a while but it seems there are no records of this phenomenon outside the Indo-West Pacific. With so many toxins involved, one would expect this process to be happening on Carribean reefs as well. Has anyone ever looked I wonder?

The crabs eat > poisonous plants, and so become poisonous, or are the crabs actually > *selecting* toxic plants to eat in order to acquire the toxics for their > own use as defensive chemicals? Actually, there's pretty good circumstantial evidence of this. I don't know if Birgus are eating to avoid predation, but on islands where this family of plants is common, natives will tie up Birgus or put them in a drum for several days to cleanse their systems. There is also a paper testing the toxicity of Birgus tissue fractions to mice, and the hepatopancreas of these crabs was quite poisonous. It wasn't clear which plant was involved. I looked into this literature to prepare a (unfunded) proposal examining the effect of rat poison or Birgus. I recall there was a Holthuis paper on toxic crustaceans too. I'll dig up the bibiography and post it. Rats often eat young crabs, and older crabs often eat rats. It seems that the plant alkaloids involved did not affect the crab much, but can have an effect on vertebrates. - -Curt Gregory Jensen : There are at least two species of amphipods in the Pacific Northwest that appear to utilize chemical defenses. Both are very boldly marked, sit right out in the open, and are rejected when offered to fish. When stressed they release a brownish liquid from the mouth, much like the "spit" from grasshoppers (which contains toxins sequestered from plants). A fish ecologist, Steve Norton, has done quite a bit of work on these amphipods but I don't know of any published information yet. Gregory C. Jensen University of Washington Gustav Paulay : For whatever it is worth, on the island of Mauke (Cook Islands), the spiny lobster Panulirus penicillatus is regarded as toxic by the locals on some parts of the reef, but not elsewhere. Gustav Paulay Marine Lab university of Guam Alistair G. B. Poore a.poore@unsw.edu.au: Among the herbivorous amphipods, many of which do consume algae rich in secondary metabolites, there are, to my knowledge, no published examples of chemical sequestration like that found in terrestrial insects or other marine herbivores such as sea hares. Neither have I heard of any examples of equestration from other chemically rich hosts such as sponges, soft corals or bryozoans. There is one system analogous to McClintock's in which an ampithoid (Pseudamphithoides incurvaria) carries around a small house made of an alga (Dictyota) unpalatable to fish. See Hay et al (1990) Host-plant specialization decreases predation on a marine amphipod: an herbivore in plant's clothing. Ecology 71: 733-743 for details. - -- Alistair G. B.

(Jerry Backus always is overloaded with work). Of the other decorators, they use just about any sponge of any taxon that is readily available. They don't seem able to scrape encrusting sponges off rocks, but any sponge that has vertical relief is fine with them. I have a Libinia and a Macrocoeloma in my aquarium right now that are busily redistributing a Haliclona sponge. Crabs of the family Dromiidae seem to prefer whatever sponge is the most common in their habitat, too. There are hermit crabs that live in sponges that overgrow their shells and form a covering for the crab. I've never seen any evidence of selection for toxicity, although it surely is an additional benefit of decorating or carrying a sponge.

Any aquaculture experience is a valuable source of information to help understand the microflora web evolution, normal and pathological : synthetic view is not easy. Biodiversity is a balance, stable or unstable, up to the time frame, in agreement with local environment - mineral and climate - , thus local biochemistry. Is modern marine aquaculture a sustainable activity ? Or does it affect the environment and destroy it ? To aquacultivate or not to aquacultivate ? That is the question ! Answers and solutions lie in a better understanding and true practical control of the interaction between culture and the microflora World Wide Web. The aquatic microflora is also a « natural » World Wild Web, capable of developing true « clean » bacterial wars to reduce « any organic load », dead or still alive, back to where it started from : the mineral world in a clean water environment accepting more biodiversity. It is not a science fiction film ! Shrimp culture, from easy time to disease Marine shrimp aquaculture production have grown rapidly and is still producing over 700.000 T all over the world and representing an impressive source of wealth in areas that have little alternative to offer. Since 1988, some national productions have dropped significantly, because of « disease ». In 1998, disease is still considered as a major threat by most of the actors, producers, bankers, politicians and ecologists that claim that land has been destroyed for no purpose. Be reinsured, ecologist friends, there is nothing easier to clean than a shrimp pond : anywhere in the world, any shrimp pond can be rehabilitated, put back in operation and profit, at low cost (if it was correctly conceived) . Disease can be prevented and production doubled, being at the same time, ecologically correct ! Disease are youth errors due to poor technology and ignorance and as it is often the case in R'n'D, to study pathological situation helps to understand how a healthy balanced situation works and how to maintain it. A complete book will be probably necessary to describe and explain the biochemical pathways that lead from health to pathology. Health and pathology use the same biochemical laws and pathogenicity is a normal fate for an efficient germ : disease signs the success of the microflora wild web in digesting organic overload and the failure of culturist technology in controlling the life of his ponds ! Aquaculture technology and the microflora Web The early shrimp farming years were a gold rush. Imre Csavas, FAO Regional Aquaculture Officer in Asia, observed in 1994, that « the largely empirical nature of shrimp culture development ». World aquaculture 1994 , 25(1), p.36. Shrimp grows well, without much care in various environmental conditions ; it demonstrates they are very hardy animals and dollars can be harvested every 3 to 5 months. No difficult technology is required : if the neighbour can do it, anybody can do it. Everywhere around the world, the easy early years face difficult follow up due to similar situations, because of « disease », that sound as excuse ! « A little learning is a dangerous thing » said the poet A. Pope. But disease is not middle age plague any more. Disease germ obeys to the same biochemical and biological laws that rule the shrimp environment. Through those laws, it is always possible to read what is occurring in a pond. There is a biological and biochemical logic in disease apparition and dis-apparition. Dis-ease in industrial husbandry is mainly due to opportunistic agents and build up, from the local microflora web. To monitor it is a precious tool to understand better, normal and pathological situation and how to shift it back to normal. True scientific and industrial solution of culture farming technology should include preventive measure against «crowding disease » to be complete. Shrimp aquaculture : a know how or a true technology ? What is an artisan extensive culture technology ? Basically, it consists in destroying predators, seeding with juveniles and in avoiding oxygen depletion through some water management. It is a true « know how » based on local personal experience and need little monitoring. To manage extensively an aquaculture pond is more an art than a technology, lacking of theoretical concept. Historically, agriculture operated in similar ways during centuries ! But it is very difficult to help an artist : he has an holistic view of his art and he does not need to monitor any parameters to produce. Co-operation between scientific and artist is difficult. Only industrial orientated producers will be able to inject better technology and to improve production. For a more industrial approach, as in the computer business, aquaculture technology requires hardware and software. Hardware is the engineering part and software should be specifically adapted to it and to the location. To copy a program without true understanding of scientific back ground, from a different place leads sometime to disappointing results. The software is made of a main program and subprograms representing specific procedures ; controls subprograms ensure that the operation is managed in a correct way. Pathology can be considered as an unwritten subprogram that takes the lead on the main program, mainly because of lack of real control of the environment. Vaccination is, in fish and higher vertebrate, an efficient sub program in culture technology, a way to avoid the impact of outside bugs. But in shrimp culture, vaccination is not possible and bug has its own life, it reproduces and often destroys host tissue. So the answer to pathology in aquaculture is to reprogram technology from day one, in order to « control » the normal microflora web. It represents clearly more complete understanding of various biochemical process and procedure than any extensive practice and it can be applied to many « ecological » situations, in open or closed ecosystem. Economical solutions are available today and can be adapted to any situations. The aquatic living World Wide Web : logical efficiency leading to pathogenicity The understanding of the disease evolution process supposes to recognise that in the aquatic world, germ life is a continuous challenge in adapting to new environment conditions. Any standing position is provisional : life is only a long chain of dis-balance links. Without inclining towards anthropocentrism, - nor any social comparison - the normal fate of any opportunistic germ is to become pathogen when condition allows it. Additional organic load in an aquatic ecosystem induces an immediate microbial response to digest it and to treat the waste. Biochemical load induces biological response from the microbial web. Thank to such efficiency, evolution and biodiversity have been made possible. But any dis-balance may induce dis-ease in some hosts, as normal part of evolution. Technology consists in being economically more efficient. Today disease situation in most of extensive shellfish culture are due to secondary invaders that have turn pathogen - bacteria, virus and anything in between - because of limited management procedures. In other words, disease of the shellfish are due to some pathology of management and/or ageing environment, which is the consequence of poor technology and management. It is not a chaotic world : biochemical laws may lead to pathology more often than to healthy products ! It is the evolution operating under our eyes, augmenting or reducing biodiversity ! As in any system, it is the dosage that makes the therapeutic or the poison : little pollution may be beneficial. Extensive aquaculture is similar to extensive agriculture. It is an Art which has its limit : pathology is one of them. And scientists are not professional artist. Books could be written - and probably will by some Internet participants - on culture technology, programming and disease prevention, but all the information is already available in various books covering exotic university knowledge such as water and soil physic, chemistry, biochemistry, bacteriology, immunology, and more specific sectors as engineering, industrial crowding disease, etc... The way to theoretical interpretation is a « long and winding road » but, as in many biotechnology, practical procedures are reliable and economical in a given program. Conclusion It was a shock to a lot of « scientific aquaculturists » that marine modern Aquaculture can be a threat to the environment and, as ecologist born, that they were on the wrong side : not at all ! Aquaculturists scientists are climbing on the shoulders on many colleagues from various origin from « true fundamental scientific world », in order to understand and better manage any ecosystem, natural, extensive or more intensive. To put such knowledge in practice is a different political story ! Nature has his way. Not to choose not to do anything IS a selected political choice with unknown consequences. NOT to do is « the temptation to remain innocent » - from a French political essay by P. Bruckner. It has social, ecological, thus political implication sometime deeper than action ! Microbial activity is regular biochemical answers to daily environmental fluctuations ; pathology is part of normal life of the aquatic World Wide Web, eventually « turning Wild » facing high organic load. In aquatic ecosystem, Health, Sustainability and Biodiversity are temporary balances, with faster turn over than out in the air. And trying to stabilise this fluctuating environment is probably a good reason to walk out of the water ! To cultivate or not to cultivate ? Is that still the question ? In an aquatic site, Nature has developed its « controls » to reach some level of productivity and biodiversity and technology pretends to do better, in a limited time frame, but may leave some « costly » residues behind. So the only immediate answer is : when the site can be disinfected, any culture is possible, whether in open water or in a closed system; if not, Nature have to take care of the left over, at its own speed, and it may include dis-ease pathways ! Is shrimp farming sustainable ? The easy obvious answer is : of course ! Very extensive farming will remain an art, managed by artist, receiving little from scientists. But it is not dangerous for the environment ! It does not need any pH meter. Semi intensive farming will act as any responsible industrial producer and will be ecologically correct : there is nothing easier to clean that water and technology is available ! 2000's fish and shellfish farming has already started to produce and is a complete closed system. This is not in order to please romantic ecologists but simply because it is safer and cheaper - the only key word that counts ! Cheaper because of higher survival, better growth rate, and soon permitting genetic selection. J. F.
