Spinicaudata Linder, 1945. Clam shrimp are a group of bivalved branchiopod crustaceans that resemble the unrelated bivalved molluscs. [1] They are extant and also known from the fossil record, from at least the Devonian period and perhaps before. [2] They were originally classified in the former order Conchostraca, which later proved to be ...
Branchiopoda. Branchiopoda is a class of crustaceans. It comprises fairy shrimp, clam shrimp, Diplostraca (or Cladocera), Notostraca, the Devonian Lepidocaris and possibly the Cambrian Rehbachiella. They are mostly small, freshwater animals that feed on plankton and detritus.
A shrimp cocktail. Shellfish is a colloquial and fisheries term for exoskeleton -bearing aquatic invertebrates used as food, including various species of molluscs, crustaceans, and echinoderms. Although most kinds of shellfish are harvested from saltwater environments, some are found in freshwater. In addition, a few species of land crabs are ...
A shed carapace of a lady crab, part of the hard exoskeleton. Body structure of a typical crustacean – krill. The body of a crustacean is composed of segments, which are grouped into three regions: the cephalon or head, [5] the pereon or thorax, [6] and the pleon or abdomen. [7] The head and thorax may be fused together to form a ...
The shrimp Palaemon serratus of the infraorder Caridea. A shrimp (pl.: shrimp or shrimps is a crustacean (a form of shellfish) with an elongated body and a primarily swimming mode of locomotion – typically belonging to the Caridea or Dendrobranchiata of the order Decapoda, although some crustaceans outside of this order are also referred to as "shrimp".
Portuguese cold cuts and sausages (charcutaria and enchidos, respectively) have long and varied traditions in meat preparation, seasoning, preservation and consumption: cured, salted, smoked, cooked, simmered, fermented, fried, wrapped, dried. Regional variations in form and flavour, specialities and names also occur.
Characteristics. This large clam shrimp presents a body colouration varying from orange to rose, and a dark maroon shell; the eggs carried by the female are yellow to orange. [1] The species is distinguished from other Lynceidae members because the males have a pair of large claspers, with the right clasper being larger than the left.
Ecology. Ephemeral wetland specialists, Leptestheria compleximanus depend on wet-dry cycles. Their life cycle has evolved to depend on drying to the point that all eggs they lay are desiccation -resistant and will not hatch during the same wet cycle during which adults are alive. These eggs will need to experience dry conditions followed by ...
