Title Osmotic Properties of the Common
Prawn
 
Creator Panikkar, N K
 
Subject Prawn and Prawn fisheries
 
Description In a previous communication1 I referred to the homoiosmotic behaviour of Palœmonetes varians and its ability to maintain hypotonicity in normal sea water. Further experiments on the osmo-regulatory mechanism of some Crustacea have revealed that the common prawn, Leander serratus (Pennant), is also definitely hypotonic when in normal sea water.
