Distribution of penaeid prawn larvae in the coastal waters of Goa
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1986)Larval and postlarval distribution of 4 commercially important penaeid prawns was studied in the coastal waters of Goa extending up to 40 m depth zone during Jan. - Dec. 1981. Larval stages of Metapenaeus dobsoni and ... -
Epibiotic community of the horseshoe crab Tachypleus gigas
(Springer, 2000)Horseshoe crabs act as moving substrata for simple to complex communities of small marine organisms. Amplexed adult pairs migrate for breeding once every 2 weeks from deep waters towards nearshore waters during highest ... -
Parthenogenetic reproduction of Diaphanosoma celebensis (Crustacea: Cladocera). Effect of algae and algal density on survival, growth, life span and neonate production
(Springer, 1999)The cladoceran Diaphanosoma celebensis Stingelin is reported on for the first time from Indian waters (Mandovi Estuary, Goa). Amictic females were maintained in the laboratory (temperature 24 plus or minus 1 degrees C and ... -
Reproductive behaviour of benthic foraminifera: A key to palaeoclimate
