Aetideid copepods dominate the mesopelagic layer of the Arctic Ocean and play an important role in the vertical material flux and biodiversity. However, little information about the lengths and weights of their copepodids is available. In this study, we collected five sympatric aetideid copepods, Chiridius obtusifrons Sars G.O., 1902, Gaetanus tenuispinus (Sars G.O., 1900), Gaetanus brevispinus (Sars G.O., 1900), Aetideopsis multiserrata (Wolfenden, 1904), and Aetideopsis rostrata Sars G.O., 1903, from the Arctic Ocean and examined their body lengths, dry and ash-free dry weights, and developmental growths at each copepodid stage. Highly significant length-weight relationships were obtained among copepodids for all species. Within genera, individuals of the same length were heavier at shallower depths. This may result from the greater nutritional availability to species within genera inhabiting shallower depths. Common to all species, the organic content (ash-free dry weight per dry weight) was high for the early copepodid stages. This may be due to the residual organic content of lipid-rich eggs retained in the non-feeding nauplii. The largest growth in females occurred at C5/C6, whereas the largest growth in males occurred at C4/C5, as determined by moult increment and proportion of growth in weight. These sex differences in weight growth could be due to the degeneration of the feeding appendage and cessation of feeding in C6 males of aetideid copepods.

This study evaluated the potential of the aqueous moringa (Moringa oleifera) leaf extract (ME) as a prebiotic and its effect on the growth performance of the whiteleg shrimp, Penaeus vannamei Boone, 1931. The growth trial of probiotics in the broth containing ME showed that Lactobacillus acidophilus growth rate was significantly higher () than that of Lactobacillus plantarum and Lactobacillus reuteri. Furthermore, L. acidophilus exhibited also better growth () than Vibrio alginolyticus, Vibrio parahaemolyticus and Vibrio harveyi in the broth containing ME. The minimum inhibitory concentration of ME (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) were the same against V. alginolyticus, V. parahaemolyticus, and V. harveyi at concentrations of 10, 7.5, and 7.5 mg/ml, respectively. By contrast, ME’s MIC and MBC against L. acidophilus were 50 and >100 mg/ml, respectively. The prebiotic scores of L. acidophilus against V. parahaemolyticus and V. harveyi were significantly higher () than that against V. alginolyticus. The MIC, MBC, and prebiotic scores indicated that ME enhanced the growth of L. acidophilus more than that of Vibrio bacteria. Six diets were formulated for the feeding trial; 3 diets contained ME at 0 (ME0), 2.5 (ME2.5) and 5.0 g/kg (ME5.0), respectively, and the same 3 diets were also prepared with L. acidophilus (ME0 + P, ME2.5 + P, and ME5.0 + P, respectively). After the feeding trial, the number of lactic acid bacteria in the gut was higher () in the ME2.5 + P group than in the control and ME2.5 groups, but no differences were found in the vibrio-like bacterial count among the treatments. The ME2.5 + P group had a higher () final weight, weight gain, and specific growth rate than did the ME or L. acidophilus alone and the control groups. Therefore, ME exhibits a prebiotic function and exerts a symbiotic effect with L. acidophilus, thus increasing the growth performance of P. vannamei.

The food habits of the blue swimming crab, Portunus segnis (Forskål, 1775) were investigated using specimens collected from trawl catches in the north-east of the Persian Gulf, from June 2018 to May 2019. Feeding habits of 304 adult female crabs, ranging from 2.6 to 8.7 cm in carapace length, were analysed. The stomach content of examined crabs showed to consist of crustaceans, fish, molluscs, unidentifiable material, sea grass and foraminiferans. We realized that the vacuity index did not show significant differences between ovigerous and non-ovigerous females (). Nevertheless, there was a significant difference in the vacuity index between barnacle-carrying crabs — Chelonibia testudinaria — and crabs without barnacles (). There was no significant difference observed in the quantity of the eaten foods between large and medium-sized groups of crabs. But a significant difference was observed between large- and small-sized crabs, and small- and medium-sized crabs. Moreover, significant differences were observed in food items between barnacle-carrying crabs and crabs without barnacles. Also, the percentage of empty stomachs was higher in ovigerous females than in non-ovigerous females.

Actinomycetes, as the main producers of a variety of active metabolites and enzymes, have received extensive attention in aquaculture. An actinomycete had been isolated from Haizhou Bay and been identified by morphological analysis and 16S rRNA sequencing. Results showed that the actinomycete had the highest similarity (99.65%) with Nocardiopsis sp. and was named strain E10. Strain E10 produced an exo-enzyme with proteinase effect that showed strong antibacterial activity against Vibrio anguillarum. This strain E10 was tested as a probiotic for the culture of Exopalaemon carinicauda. After having been fed with a diet supplemented with strain E10 for 30 days, the final body weight (Wt), weight gain rate (WGR), special growth rate (SGR), survival rate (SR) and digestive enzymes (chymotrypsin, α-amylase and lipase) of E. carinicauda in all experimental groups showed no significant differences (). However, the antioxidant enzymes (total superoxide dismutase, catalase and peroxidase) and the non-specific immune-related enzymes (acid phosphatase, alkaline phosphatase and lysozyme) in the treatment groups increased significantly () compared with the control group. The cumulative mortality of the treatment groups (35.56% in 5 × 109 CFU/100 g) was significantly lower than that of the control treatment (73.33%) () post challenge with V. anguillarum for 14 days. The results indicated that strain E10 had no significant effect on the growth, but a significant improvement on the immunity of E. carinicauda. This study provides the data for ecological aquaculture of E. carinicauda.

The first record of the little known stomatopod Parasquilla ferussaci (Roux, 1828) in the Adriatic Sea is documented. One specimen was captured near islet Blitvenica in the eastern Adriatic (Croatian coast) on 26 January 2021 with a bottom trawl. This record indicates the extension of the known distributional range of this species in the Mediterranean Sea. Here we also provide the first data on the molecular identification of Parasquilla ferussaci supported by the detailed morphological description of the investigated specimen. Parasquilla is derived as a sister group to Faughnia, which together are sister to the genus Pseudosquillopsis.

β-catenin is an important signal transduction protein in the canonical Wnt/β-catenin pathway, which is widely involved in the development of animals. However, the role of β-catenin in crustaceans is still unclear. In this study, the cDNA of β-catenin from Exopalaemon carinicauda (Holthuis, 1950) was identified and characterized. The open reading frame (ORF) is 2424 bp, which encodes 807 amino acids containing an N-terminal region of a GSK-β consensus phosphorylation site and a central region of 11 armadillo (ARM) repeats. The tissue distribution showed that β-catenin was highly expressed in ovary, testis, hepatopancreas, heart, and gills. During embryonic development, the transcript of β-catenin was relatively high in the zygote, and the thirty-two-cell stage, blastula stage, gastrula stage, and nauplius stage. The transcripts of β-catenin in haemocytes, gills, and hepatopancreas were significantly up-regulated after infection with Vibrio anguillarum Bergeman, 1909. These results indicate that β-catenin participates in the regulation of embryonic development and in the immune response in E. carinicauda.

In estuarine systems, salinity changes by freshwater inflows and tides affect the survival and behaviour of euryhaline species. Juvenile Chinese mitten crabs, Eriocheir sinensis, are considered to live in fresh water during their complex life history, whilst some are found in coastal wetlands. To understand how juveniles disperse in estuarine residence, we investigated their survival, feed intake and salinity preference after acclimating in three different water situations (i.e., fresh water, salt water and alternation between fresh water and salt water). We supposed that behavioural alternation and salinity preference would play an essential role in their acclimation. Results showed no significant difference in survival and feed intake amongst the three groups of juveniles () in acclimation trials. However, the feed intake of crabs in each group was declining after changing water every three days. In the salinity preference experiment, crabs from fresh water preferred 0 and 12, whereas those from salinity and alternation treatments showed no preference. The salinity preference seemed to be modified by prior acclimation as well, and juvenile crabs could therefore survive and disperse in the different salinities. Our study helps to explain the complex distribution of juveniles in estuaries and provides arguments for the feasibility of Chinese mitten crabs being reared in low salinity waters.

The type species of Abyssotheres Manning & Galil, 2000, Pinnoteres abyssicola Alcock & Anderson, 1899, was re-examined to ascertain the veracity of several character states which had been used by the original authors to establish the genus. Komatsu & Ohtsuka (2009) had questioned whether the palp of the third maxilliped only had two articles, with the dactylus absent as reported by Manning & Galil (2000). The type female of the species actually has a dactylus on the third maxilliped palp. In addition, despite earlier statements that the first and second ambulatory legs have the longest dactyli, this is not the case, with the second and third legs possessing the longest dactyli. In addition, A. acesticola Komatsu & Ohtsuka, 2009, is here reported from Tungsha Island in the South China Sea, for the first time.
