Isbn: 9798246221440 - spiny lobster care & breeding guide: from juvenile to adult: habitat design, diet, and disease prevention (3 risultati)

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Spiny lobsters belong to the order Decapoda, which includes crabs, shrimp, and true lobsters. Within this order, they are placed in the infraorder Achelata. This infraorder is defined by the absence of claws and the presence of long, whip-like antennae.The family Palinuridae contains the true spiny lobsters commonly encountered in fisheries and aquaculture. A related family, Scyllaridae, includes slipper lobsters, which differ significantly in body shape and behavior and are not the focus of this book.Within the Palinuridae family, several genera exist, each adapted to specific geographic regions and environmental conditions. Taxonomic classification is based on morphological characteristics such as antennal structure, carapace spination, and reproductive anatomy, as well as genetic analyses that reveal evolutionary relationships.Understanding taxonomy is not merely an academic exercise. Different species exhibit distinct growth rates, temperature tolerances, reproductive cycles, and dietary preferences. Accurate species identification is therefore essential for effective management, breeding programs, and conservation strategies. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
