Description Shellfish systematics is the most unique one in Fisheries Science in view of its importance and
implications in diversity. The systematic zoology is the science that discovers names, determines
relationships, classifies and studies the evolution of living organisms. It is an important branch in
biology and is considered to be one of the major subdivisions of biology having a broader base than
genetics, biochemistry and physiology. The shellfish includes two highly diversified phyla i.e. phylum
Arthropoda and phylum Mollusca. These two groups are named as shellfishes because of the
presence of exoskeleton made of chitin in arthropods and shells made of calcium in molluscs.
These two major phyla are invertebrates. They show enormous diversity in their morphology, in
the habitats they occupy and in their biology. Phylum Arthropoda includes economically important
groups such as lobsters, shrimps, crabs.
Taxonomical study reveals numerous
interesting phenomena in shellfish
phylogeny and the study is most
indispensable for the correct identification
of candidate species for conservation and
management of our fishery resources and
aquaculture practices. On the whole
taxonomic study on shellfishes furnishes the
urgently needed information about species
and it cultivates a way of thinking and
approaching of all biological problems, which
are much needed for the balance and well
being of shellfish biology as a whole.
