A comparison of the documented ecology and behaviour of the separate phases in the life
cycles is presented. Data gathered during the review show that during the evolution of the …

Spiny lobsters are one of the most valuable seafood products in the world. A major
bottleneck to the development of commercial spiny lobster aquaculture is a lack of …

The larvae or phyllosomes of many species of spiny lobsters (Palinuridae) are known to
complete their development in offshore oceanic waters. Phyllosomes metamorphose to non …

The impact of starvation on the digestive enzyme (protease, trypsin, lipase and amylase)
activities of Stage I and IV Jasus edwardsii phyllosoma larvae was used to identify the …

Climate change is predicted to significantly affect the world's oceans, with increases in water
temperature, changes in ocean currents, pH levels and winds. This chapter highlights the …

Despite the global significance of spiny lobsters, the biology of their planktonic larvae,
especially their carnivorous diet, is very poorly understood. Unsuitable diets and feeding …

We examined the lipid class and fatty-acid composition of the southern rock lobster, Jasus
edwardsii, phyllosoma larvae and puerulus stage to improve understanding of their nutrition …

Stage I phyllosoma larvae of the spiny lobster Panulirus ornatus hatch in tropical oceanic
waters with limited and variable food resources. To better understand how these larvae cope …

The rock lobster Jasus edwardsii forms the basis of important fisheries in south‐eastern
Australia and New Zealand. Their long pelagic larval phyllosoma phase (12–24 months) …

No other palinurid genus is so widely distributed in southern waters as Jasus. Occurring in
midsouth latitudes of the Southern Ocean and in the South Atlantic, Indian, and South Pacific …
