Seasonal abundance, distribution and recruitment of mud crabs (Scylla spp.) in replanted mangroves
(Elsevier, 2006)
The abundance and distribution of mud crabs were studied in a replanted mangrove forest in Buswang, Aklan, Philippines. Two fishing gears, lift nets and bamboo traps, were used to monitor relative abundance of Scylla spp. ...
On a new species of Trachypenaeus (Crustacea, Decapoda: Penaeidae) from the Philippines, with notes on related species
(Carcinological Society of Japan, 1979)
Trachypenaeus villaluzi a new species of penaeid prawn from the Philippines is described in detail and compared with the related species. The new species is characterized by the following features : Mastigobranchia are ...
Lipids and fatty acid composition in the crustacean model organism Artemia sp. as influenced by poly‐β‐hydroxybutyrate (PHB) supplementation
(Wiley, 2020-12)
The effects of dietary poly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) on the lipid and fatty acids (FA) in crustaceans were investigated using Artemia as model species. Supplying PHB either in crystalline or amorphous form significantly ...
Baseline assessment of fisheries for three species of mud crabs (Scylla spp.) in the mangroves of Ibajay, Aklan, Philippines
(University of Miami, Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science, 2007)
Stock enhancement through habitat restoration and habitat release have both been considered as approaches to the management of declining Scylla spp. Prior to stock enhancement trials, the present study was conducted to ...
Sea lice (Copepoda, Caligidae) parasitic on marine cultured and wild fishes of the Philippines
(The Fisheries Society of Taiwan, 2004)
Four species of sea lice were found parasitic on ten species of marine fishes either cultured in the coastal ponds or occurring in the sea water supply canals in the Philippines. They are: Caligus epidemicus Hewitt, 1971 ...
Size and diel differences in activity patterns of Metapenaeus ensis, Penaeus latisulcatus and P. merguiensis
(Taylor & Francis, 2000)
The nursery function of mangroves as shelter has been postulated to explain the positive correlation between shrimp catches and mangrove area. This study was undertaken to document shelter use and other activities in ...
Effects of unilateral eyestalk ablation on growth and reproductive parameters in wild and pond-reared Penaeus monodon (Fabricius) broodstock
(San Carlos Publications, University of San Carlos, 1991)
Effects of unilateral eyestalk ablation on wild and pond-reared Penaeus monodon during ovarian maturation were determined by examining the growth (e.g., carapace length, body length, body weight) and reproductive (e.g., ...
Tissue lipid content and fatty acid composition of Penaeus monodon Fabricius broodstock from the wild
(Wiley-Blackwell, 1990)
Tissues (hepatopancreas, muscle, gonad) of wild Penacus mordon females with ovaries in different stages of development and males were analyzed for Upid content and fatty acid composition. Hepatopancreatic tissue had the ...
Touch-sensitive bristles on the carapace of the mud crab Scylla paramamosain may be receptors for courtship signals
(Springer, 2020-11-17)
Bristle patches on the carapace behind the eyes were found for the first time in both males and females of the four species of mud crab Scylla spp. Electrocardiography revealed that the bristle patches of Scylla paramamosain ...
