“…Furthermore, genetic analyses suggest colonization by mud crabs of the IWP through propagules deriving from the WPO (Gopurenko et al, 1999;Fratini et al, 2010). The most ancestral haplotype is found in the Red Sea; the colonization of the IWP region seems to have its origin in a rapid single radiation through the Pleistocene (Gopurenko et al, 1999).…”

“…It can be found in tropical and subtropical coastal regions of the IWP including the southern coast of South Africa (34°S) (Du Plessis, 1971), the east coast of Africa (Le Reste et al, 1976;Barnes et al, 2002;Davis et al, 2004;Fondo et al, 2010;Macia et al, 2014), the Red Sea (Keenan et al, 1998), Gulf of Aden (Simões et al, 2001), the Arabian/ Persian Gulf (Hogarth & Beech, 2001;RezaieAtagholipour et al, 2013), South-east and East Asia (Bight of Bengal, 19-21°N, Mohanty et al, 2006;Zafar et al, 2006;Indonesia, 5°N-10°S, Sugama and Hutapea, 1999;Nordhaus et al, 2009), the northern Philippine Sea, (34°N) (Imai et al, 2004), and Australia (Keenan et al, 1998). It also occurs around oceanic islands of the Indo-Pacific: Marianas, Fiji, Samoa Islands (Keenan et al, 1998), and Seychelles, Maldives, and Mauritius (Gopurenko et al, 1999;Anand et al, 2006;Fratini et al, 2010). The species was introduced to the Hawaiian Archipelago between 1926 and 1935 and has since then become an established population (DeFelice et al, 2001).…”

“…The larvae have high dispersal potential during the planktonic life stages (16-75 days depending on environmental conditions, Baylon 2010), which is driven by regional and global currents. This enables S. serrata to connect with other geographic areas and expand to new habitats, resulting in panmixis of the species (Hill, 1994;Gopurenko et al, 1999Gopurenko et al, , 2003.…”

The mud crab Scylla serrata is a highly exploited species, associated to mangrove ecosystems in the Indo-West-Pacific. It has a complex life cycle with a dispersing larvae phase, and benthic juveniles and adults. The former are stenohaline depending on high-salinity conditions to survive, whereas the latter are physiologically well adapted to changing temperatures and salinities, conditions that typically occur in mangrove habitats. Movement and habitat use of large juveniles and adults are well studied, and these life stages are known to utilize and move between various habitats within the mangrove ecosystem: intertidal flats as well as subtidal channels and flats. Females undertake long movements from brackish inshore waters to waters with oceanic conditions for spawning. Sensory abilities-of early stages and adult stageshave hardly been studied, and little is known about larval and early benthic stages in the wild. Summarizing, the literature revealed substantial gaps in the understanding of the spatiotemporal dynamics of the different life stages and of the clues that trigger recruitment, movement, and other behavior. This is the first comprehensive review on the life history, movement patterns, habitat use, and systemic role of S. serrata with emphasis on the respective life stages and geographic differences. We emphasize the need for further research into these processes as a basis for the sustainable management and conservation of this species.

“…Our findings on CR evolution network and the highest nucleotide diversity of the SE Asian cluster provide evidence to support that P. japonicus and the lineages of P. pulchricaudatus were derived from the SE Asian region. The mud crab Scylla serrata (Forsskål, 1755) also exhibit the comparable phylogeographic structure and genetically-differentiated geographic clusters in the Indo-West Pacific which were believed to be associated with the seawater level fluctuation and paleo-oceanographic conditions in the Pleistocene (Gopurenko et al 1999;He et al 2011). Geographical barriers emanating from land bridges, historic glacial patterns, and oceanic currents would probably have affected the phylogeographic distribution of P. pulchricaudatus and P. japonicus (see Tsoi et al 2007).…”

Abstract. The kuruma shrimp Penaeus japonicus Bate, 1888 (Decapoda : Penaeidae) is economically important in the global shrimp market. It was regarded as the only species in the subgenus Marsupenaeus. However, our previous molecular analyses revealed two cryptic species (Forms I and II) in this species complex. In this study, we confirm the phylogenetic relatedness between the two cryptic species; revise their taxonomic status; and review their range distribution. The name Penaeus pulchricaudatus Stebbing, 1914 (with type-locality off the eastern coast of South Africa), previously considered as a junior synonym of P. japonicus, is fixed for Form II through a neotype selection. P. japonicus (Form I) is only confined to the East China Sea (including Japan, its type-locality) and the northern South China Sea. P. pulchricaudatus is widely distributed in the South China Sea, Australia, the Red Sea, the Mediterranean, and the western Indian Ocean. Phylogenetic analysis shows that P. japonicus is genetically homogeneous yet P. pulchricaudatus exhibits a strong phylogeographical structure. The Mediterranean stock of P. pulchricaudatus originated from the Red Sea population, supporting the Lessepsian migration hypothesis. The presence of two closely related cryptic species in the P. japonicus species complex provides important insights into fishery management and aquaculture development.

“…The mtDNA COI fragment was amplified in a final volume of 50 µL with 25 ng of total DNA, 1× reaction buffer, 2 mM MgSO 4 , 200 µM of each dNTP, 15 µg of BSA, 1 µM of each primer and 1 U of Vent DNA polymerase (New England BioLabs, Ipswich, MA, USA). The primers used were C/N 2769 (Gopurenko et al, 1999) and LCO 1490 (Folmer et al, 1994). The PCR program included an initial denaturation step of 94 • C for 5 min followed by 44 cycles of 94 • C for 45 s, 53 • C for 1 min and 72 • C for 1 min 30 s, plus a final extension step of 72 • C for 10 min.…”

-The white-clawed crayfish is endemic to western and southern Europe and its population has dramatically decreased in the last few decades. The latest reports on this species have shown that the genetic variability of Spanish populations displays a clear geographic pattern, with two main genetic groups across its range of distribution. To ensure the preservation of this endangered species, specimens for restocking purposes should be chosen, ideally, accordingly to their genetic characteristics. Here, we propose a PCR-RFLP assay developed for this purpose. Digestion of a fragment of the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I gene -with two restriction enzymes, HpaI and CviAII -differentiates the most common haplotypes identified in Spain. This technique is a useful, low-cost and rapid method to facilitate the genetic characterization of Spanish white-clawed crayfish and, in doing so, to incorporate genetic information into conservation plans for this species. Key-words:Spanish white-clawed crayfish / Cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) / PCR-RFLP / Restriction enzymes / genetic groups Résumé -Mise au point d'un essai COI PCR-RFLP pour une caractérisation génétique rapide de l'écrevisse à pattes blanches espagnole. L'écrevisse à pattes blanches est endémique de l'Europe occidentale et méridionale et ses populations ont considérablement diminué au cours des dernières décennies. Les derniers rapports sur cette espèce ont montré que la variabilité génétique des populations espagnoles affiche une répartition géographique claire avec deux principaux groupes génétiques dans son aire de distribution. Pour assurer la conservation de cette espèce en voie de disparition, les échantillons à des fins de repeuplement doivent être choisis, idéalement, en fonction de leurs caractéristiques génétiques. Nous proposons ici une analyse PCR-RFLP développée à cet effet. La digestion d'un fragment du gène de la sous-unité I de cytochrome oxydase mitochondriale -avec deux enzymes de restriction HpaI et CviAII -différencie les haplotypes les plus communs identifiés en Espagne. Cette technique est une méthode, à faible coût, utile et rapide pour faciliter la caractérisation génétique de l'écrevisse à pattes blanches espagnole et, ce faisant, pour incorporer l'information génétique dans les plans de conservation pour cette espèce.
