A key for the identification of zoeae of burrowing shrimp of the infraorders Gebiidea and Axiidea in Peter the Great Bay, the Sea of Japan

详细

An illustrated key for the identification of the first zoeal stage of burrowing shrimp of the infraorders Gebiidea and Axiidea in the plankton of Peter the Great Bay (the Sea of Japan) has been created. A summary of the main morphological features of gebiidean and axiidean larvae is presented. The possibility of variation of the number of zoeal stages in shrimp of the infraorders Gebiidea and Axiidea in different populations and/or under different laboratory conditions is discussed.
