Diversity and distribution of stomatopod and decapod crustaceans in the estuary of Gallegos river (Santa Cruz-Argentina). We studied the diversity and distribution of stomatopod and decapod crustaceans from the estuary of Gallegos River, Argentina. Decapods were found at all stations, while stomatopods and anomurans were found only at the exterior station. There was a marked difference in diversity, the exterior station being more diverse. A total of six species were found (five decapods and one stomatopod), a low value when compared with the surrounding sea. Abundance was variable at stations, depending on the type of bottom. Rev.
