    LECTURE NOTE ON FIS 503 FIS 503 – PRODUCTION OF OTHER MARINE PRODUCTS (2 UNITS) This Course is taught by three (3) lecturers - Dr. I.T. Omoniyi, Dr. F.I. Adeosun and Dr. A.A. Idowu The Course synopsis is further outlined on lecture basis as follows: Lectures 1 – 4: Ecology, life histories of crustaceans and aquatic molluscs Lecture 5 – 8: Culture of Shrimps, Oysters, crayfish, crabs, periwinkles and frogs Lecture 9: Culture of edible sea weeds Lecture 10 – 11: Sea and Shore farming of some products Lecture 12: Processing and preservation of marine products. ECOLOGY AND LIFE HISTORIES OF CRUSTACEANS At elementary level, crustaceans are a class of primarily aquatic arthropods. The name crustacean is derived from the Latin words ‘crusta’ meaning hard shell. The class is large (about 26,000 known species) and includes a variety of aquatic animals such as shrimps, crabs, lobsters, barnacles, water fleas etc. Some crustaceans occur in the seas and freshwaters, some are semi-terrestrial. They are mostly free-living, but few are parasitic. The common names shrimps and prawns are used interchangeably but it has now been resolved at FAO Convention to call marine and brackish water forms shrimps and freshwater forms prawns. Technically, the prawns have pleura of 2nd abdominal segment overlapping with 1st and 3rd segments ventrally. But in shrimps, the somite of 2nd abdominal segment overlaps the 3rd somite. Before commercial importance of crustaceans could be appreciated, the characteristics and the relationships need be mentioned. The main diagnostic features of the Class are: The occurrence of 2 pairs of pre-oral appendages which are antenniform and sensory in functions i.e.

We furveyed the Euxine fea with the greater pleafure, as we viewed it from the lame fpot, whence both Xenophon and Yourfelf had formerly ob- ferved it. Two altars of rough Hone are ftill landing there ; but, from the coarfenefs of the materials, the letters infcribed upon them are indiftincliy engraven, and the Infcription itfelf is incor- rectly written, as is common among barbarous people. I deter- mined therefore to erect altars of marble, and to engrave the In- fcription in well marked and diftinct characters. Your Statue, which Hands there, has merit in the idea of the figure, and of the defign, as it reprefents You pointing towards the fea; but it bears no refemblance to the Original, and the execution is in other re- fpects but indifferent.

  • Perna Canaliculus) Survival, Growth and Byssal Characteristics
    The effect of the decorator crab Notomithrax minor on cultivated Greenshell mussel spat (Perna canaliculus) survival, growth and byssal characteristics. By Irene van de V en A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Marine Biology Victoria University of Wellington 2007 Acknowledgements Acknowledgements I would like to thank my supervisors Jonathan Gardner and Kevin Heasman for their support, mentoring advice and patience. I would also like to acknowledge the financial support received through the Dick and Mary Earle Scholarship in Technology, it proved one of the vital aspects in being able to produce this research. Thank you to Jorge David Aguirre Davies and Chris Cornwall for the many hours spent diving in dark, inhospitable and just plain nasty conditions underneath wharfs in the Wellington harbour to collect crabs. Thanks to the employees of Sanford Ltd; in particular Dave Herbert for making spat available for my experiments and for organising transport to and from my study sites. I would also like to thank Aaron Pannell and Dean Higgins at Marlborough Mussel Company for initially showing interest in my topic and for the numerous trips on their mussel harvesters and other boats. They also made a huge amount of spat available for experiments and made it possible for me to present my preliminary findings at the New Zealand Marine Farming Association AGM. Without this cooperation from the Greenshell mussel industry this project could never have been accomplished. Acknowledgetnents Thanks to the staff at the Cawthron Institute in particular the Cawthron Aquaculture Park staff; Dan McCall, Ellie Watts, Norman Ragg, Henry Kaspar and Achim Janke for providing invaluable advice, logistic and moral support and resources.

Cum autem concilium caelestium in sedibus immortalitatis eum dedicavisset et imperium parentis in tuam potestatem transtulisset, idem studium meum in eius memoria permanens in te contulit favorem.

  • Feeding Design in Free-Living Mesostigmatid Chelicerae
    Experimental and Applied Acarology (2021) 84:1–119 https://doi.org/10.1007/s10493-021-00612-8 REVIEW PAPER Feeding design in free‑living mesostigmatid chelicerae (Acari: Anactinotrichida) Clive E. Bowman1 Received: 4 April 2020 / Accepted: 25 March 2021 / Published online: 30 April 2021 © The Author(s) 2021 Abstract A model based upon mechanics is used in a re-analysis of historical acarine morphologi- cal work augmented by an extra seven zoophagous mesostigmatid species. This review shows that predatory mesostigmatids do have cheliceral designs with clear rational pur- poses. Almost invariably within an overall body size class, the switch in predatory style from a worm-like prey feeding (‘crushing/mashing’ kill) functional group to a micro- arthropod feeding (‘active prey cutting/slicing/slashing’ kill) functional group is matched by: an increased cheliceral reach, a bigger chelal gape, a larger morphologically estimated chelal crunch force, and a drop in the adductive lever arm velocity ratio of the chela. Small size matters. Several uropodines (Eviphis ostrinus, the omnivore Trachytes aegrota, Urodi- aspis tecta and, Uropoda orbicularis) have more elongate chelicerae (greater reach) than their chelal gape would suggest, even allowing for allometry across mesostigmatids. They may be: plesiosaur-like high-speed strikers of prey, scavenging carrion feeders (like long- necked vultures), probing/burrowing crevice feeders of cryptic nematodes, or small mor- sel/fragmentary food feeders. Some uropodoids have chelicerae and chelae which probably work like a construction-site mechanical excavator-digger with its small bucket. Possible hoeing/bulldozing, spore-cracking and tiny sabre-tooth cat-like striking actions are dis- cussed for others.

First, I am in great debt to my advisor, Dr. Michi Tobler. Without your never ending help and desire to push me to my limits, these projects would not have been possible. Your attitude towards me and my research allowed me to really dive right in without feeling pressured and stressed. The freedom and trust you gave me to run my own research allowed me to grow as an individual more than I ever would have thought. I could not have asked for a better advisor and friend. Next, I thank my committee members: Dr. Puni Jeyasingh, Dr. Andrew Dzialowski, Dr. Mona Papeş, and Dr. Shannon Brewer, for all of your faith and confidence in my research and myself. Your jokes, even at my expense, and overall general attitudes really help me keep a level head and push through the rough times.

  • Scorpiones: Euscorpiidae)
    Reconsideration of the Taxonomy of Euscorpius tergestinus (Scorpiones: Euscorpiidae) Gioele Tropea July 2013 — No. 162 Euscorpius Occasional Publications in Scorpiology EDITOR: Victor Fet, Marshall University, ‘[email protected]’ ASSOCIATE EDITOR: Michael E. Soleglad, ‘[email protected]’ Euscorpius is the first research publication completely devoted to scorpions (Arachnida: Scorpiones). Euscorpius takes advantage of the rapidly evolving medium of quick online publication, at the same time maintaining high research standards for the burgeoning field of scorpion science (scorpiology). Euscorpius is an expedient and viable medium for the publication of serious papers in scorpiology, including (but not limited to): systematics, evolution, ecology, biogeography, and general biology of scorpions. Review papers, descriptions of new taxa, faunistic surveys, lists of museum collections, and book reviews are welcome. Derivatio Nominis The name Euscorpius Thorell, 1876 refers to the most common genus of scorpions in the Mediterranean region and southern Europe (family Euscorpiidae). Euscorpius is located at: http://www.science.marshall.edu/fet/Euscorpius (Marshall University, Huntington, West Virginia 25755-2510, USA) ICZN COMPLIANCE OF ELECTRONIC PUBLICATIONS: Electronic (“e-only”) publications are fully compliant with ICZN (International Code of Zoological Nomenclature) (i.e. for the purposes of new names and new nomenclatural acts) when properly archived and registered. All Euscorpius issues are archived in two electronic archives: Biotaxa, http://biotaxa.org/Euscorpius (ICZN-approved and ZooBank-enabled) Marshall Digital Scholar, http://mds.marshall.edu/euscorpius/. (This website also archives all Euscorpius issues previously published on CD-ROMs.) Between 2000 and 2013, ICZN did not accept online texts as "published work" (Article 9.8). At this time, Euscorpius was produced in two identical versions: online (ISSN 1536-9307) and CD-ROM (ISSN 1536-9293) (laser disk) in archive-quality, read-only format.
