Susceptible Species of Aquatic Animals Susceptible Species of Aquatic Animals Reportable and immediately notifiable diseases are of significant importance to aquatic animal health and to the Canadian economy. The table below provides a summary of the scientific names of the susceptible species currently listed in the Health of Animals Regulations and identifies the disease(s) to which they are susceptible. Susceptibility in aquatic species is determined if the infection can be demonstrated by natural occurrences of the disease in the species, or by experimental exposure of the species to the disease agent that mimic the natural routes of infection for that disease. If you suspect or detect any of the reportable diseases in the animals that you own or work with, you are required by law to immediately contact the CFIA . Only laboratories are required to notify the CFIA upon suspicion or detection of immediately notifiable diseases. Important Note: The Health of Animals Regulations include the scientific names for aquatic species. Susceptible species have many common names, but only one common name has been provided in the table to assist in identifying their scientific name. These names are for aquatic animal health purposes only and does not replace the CFIA Fish List which is used for the labelling of fish imported into Canada or produced by an establishment registered with the CFIA under the Fish Inspection Regulations .

W. Hasson1,*, Y. Fan1, T. Reisinger2, J. Venuti1, P. W. Varner1 1Texas Veterinary Medical Diagnostic Laboratory, 1 Sippel Road, College Station, Texas 77845, USA 2Texas Sea Grant/Cooperative Extension, 650 East Business Highway 77, San Benito, Texas 78586, USA ABSTRACT: We analysed 20 boxes of, frozen imported bait-shrimp (China: Parapenaeopsis sp. and Metapenaeopsis sp.) and 8 boxes of native, frozen bait-shrimp (Gulf of Mexico: Litopenaeus setiferus and Farfantepenaeus duorarum) by RT-PCR or PCR for Taura syndrome virus (TSV), yellowhead virus/gill-associated virus (YHV/GAV), white-spot syndrome virus (WSSV) and infectious hypoder- mal and hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHHNV). All 28 boxes of shrimp were negative for TSV, YHV/GAV and IHHNV; 2 boxes of imported bait-shrimp were WSSV-positive by 3 different PCR assays. Intramuscular injection of replicate groups of SPF (specific pathogen-free) L. vannamei juveniles with 2 different tissue homogenates prepared from the 2 WSSV-positive bait boxes resulted in 100% mortality of the test shrimp within 48 to 72 h post-injection. No mortality occurred among injected negative control groups. Histological and in situ hybridization analyses of 20 moribund treatment-shrimp demonstrated severe WSSV infections in each sample. Oral exposure of SPF L. vannamei postlarvae, PL (PL 25 to 30 stage; ~0.02 g) to minced tissue prepared from the 2 WSSV- positive bait-lots did not induce infection, possibly because of an insufficient infectious dose and/or viral inactivation resulting from multiple freeze-thaw cycles of the bait-shrimp during PCR testing.

  • The Utilization of Lobsters by Humans in the Mediterranean Basin from the Prehistoric Era to the Modern Era – an Interdisciplinary Short Review
    Athens Journal of Mediterranean Studies- Volume 1, Issue 3 – Pages 223-234 The Utilization of Lobsters by Humans in the Mediterranean Basin from the Prehistoric Era to the Modern Era – An Interdisciplinary Short Review By Ehud Spanier The Mediterranean and Red Seas host a variety of clawed, spiny and slipper lobsters. Lobsters' utilization in ancient times varied, ranging from complete prohibition by the Jewish religion, to that of epicurean status in the Roman world. One of the earliest known illustrations of a spiny lobster was a wall carving in Egypt depicting the Queen Hatshepsut expedition to the Red Sea in the 15th century BC. Lobsters were known by the ancient Greeks and Romans as was expressed in art forms and writings. Lobsters also appeared in ancient mosaics and coins. The writings of naturalists and philosophers from the Roman-Hellenistic period, together with illustrative records indicate that lobsters were a popular food and there was considerable knowledge of their classification, biology and fisheries. The popularity of lobsters as gourmet food increased with time followed by an expansion of the scientific knowledge as well as over exploitation of these resources. Keywords: Antiquity, Biology, Fisheries, Lobsters, Mediterranean. Introduction A variety of edible lobsters, that are still commercially significant to human inhabitants today, are found in the water of the Mediterranean and adjacent Red Sea regions. This important marine resource includes at least two Mediterranean clawed lobsters (the European lobster, Homarus gammarus, and the Norway lobster, Nephrops norvegicus), five spiny lobsters (two in the Mediterranean: the common spiny lobster, Palinurus elephas, and the pink spiny lobster, P.

  • On the Structure and Mechanism of the Gastric Mill in Decapoda
    ON THE STRUCTURE AND MECHANISM OF THE GASTRIC MILL IN DECAPODA. IV. The Structure of the Gastric Mill in Reptantous Macrura. By S. S. PATWARDHAN, M.Sc., Department of Zoology, College of Science, Nagpur. Received January 25, 1935. (Communicated by Prof. M. A. Moghe, M.A., M.Sc., r.z.s.) 1. Introduction. THE sub-order Macrura may be divided into two groups: (1) Reptantous Macrura, comprising crayfishes, lobsters and allied forms and characterised by possessing a dorsoventrally flattened body and a crawling and climbing mode of locomotion, and (2) Natantous Macrura comprising prawns and shrimps, characterised by possessing a laterally flattened body and a swimming mode of locomotion. The Reptantous Macrura are also characterised by the universal presence of a complex gastric mill and simple mandibles. In the present communication it is proposed to give a comparative account of the gastric mill in Reptantous Macrura. 2. Material and Method. The gastric mills of crayfish, Astacus fluviatilis, Palinurus and of many other lobsters have been already described in many text-books (Huxley, 1880; Powell, 1913) . The material at my disposal consists of six species obtained from various Biological Supplies Stations and represents all the tribes, excepting Eryonidea, and four families.

The etiological agents are protists of very small size that are very dif- ficult to characterize taxonomically. Associated lesions may vary according to the host species, and their occurrence may be related to variations in tissue structure. Lesion morphology cannot be used to distinguish the different agents involved. Ultrastructural observations on Mikrocytos roughleyi revealed similarities with Bonamia spp., particularly in regard to the presence of electron-dense hap- losporosomes and mitochondria, whose absence from M. mackini also indicate that M. roughleyi and M. mackini are not congeneric. A partial small subunit (ssu) rRNA gene sequence of M. roughleyi was determined. This partial sequence, 951 nucleotides in length, has 95.2 and 98.4% sequence sim- ilarities with B. ostreae and B. exitiosus ssu rDNA sequences, respectively.

  • Taxonomy, Biology and Distribution of Lobsters
    Taxonomy, Biology and Distribution of Lobsters 15 Rekha Devi Chakraborty and E.V.Radhakrishnan Crustacean Fisheries Division, Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute, Kochi-682 018 Lobsters are among the most prized of fisheries resources and of significant commercial interest in many countries. Because of their high value and esteemed culinary worth, much attention has been paid to lobsters in biological, fisheries, and systematic literature. They have a great demand in the domestic market as a delicacy and is a foreign exchange earner for the country. Taxonomic status Phylum: Arthropoda Subphylum: Crustacea Class: Malacostraca Subclass: Eumalacostraca Superorder: Eucarida Order: Decapoda Suborder: Macrura Reptantia The suborder Macrura Reptantia consists of three infraorders: Astacidea (Marine lobsters and freshwater crayfishes), Palinuridea (Spiny lobsters and slipper lobsters) and Thalassinidea (mud lobsters). The infraorder Astacidea Summer School on Recent Advances in Marine Biodiversity Conservation and Management 100 Rekha Devi Chakraborty and E.V.Radhakrishnan contains three superfamilies of which only one (the Infraorder Palinuridea, Superfamily Eryonoidea, Family Nephropoidea) is considered here. The remaining two Polychelidae superfamilies (Astacoidea and parastacoidea) contain the 1b. Third pereiopod never with a true chela,in most groups freshwater crayfishes. The superfamily Nephropoidea (40 chelae also absent from first and second pereiopods species) consists almost entirely of commercial or potentially 3a Antennal flagellum reduced to a single broad and flat commercial species. segment, similar to the other antennal segments ..... Infraorder Palinuridea, Superfamily Palinuroidea, The infraorder Palinuridea also contains three superfamilies Family Scyllaridae (Eryonoidea, Glypheoidea and Palinuroidea) all of which are 3b Antennal flagellum long, multi-articulate, flexible, whip- marine. The Eryonoidea are deepwater species of insignificant like, or more rigid commercial interest.
