“…males, as found in L. virentova, has been reported for the alvinocaridids Alvinocaris stactophila (Brine Pool cold seep; Copley and Young 2006) and Rimicaris hybisae (Von Damm and Beebe vent fields; Nye et al 2013a). As fecundity and investment per gamete are positively correlated with female size in many shrimp species (Carpenter 1983;Bauer 1991;Terossi and Mentelatto 2010;Nye et al 2013a), this trait may be advantageous in maximising fitness.…”

“…Paratya (shrimp) and Collembola were removed from the data set before MDS analyses. Paratya were not included because they migrate to the sea for the development of early life stages, and their presence is influenced by physical barriers (natural and constructed) and distance from the sea (Carpenter 1983). Paratya was only found at the SB reference site (SBR).…”

“…Many native fish species (McDowall 1990) and the New Zealand freshwater shrimp Paratya curvirostris (Carpenter 1983) depend upon access to the sea to complete their life cycles. Although many native fish are good climbers, rural ponds often have outlet structures that are a significant barrier to the passage of climbing and non-climbing native fish species (Boubée et al 1999).…”

Effects of small ponds on stream water quality and macroinvertebrate communities

Six small constructed ponds (surface area 500-7500 m 2 , catchment area 28-158 ha) in rural and native forest catchments in the Auckland region had poorer water quality than the streams they replaced. Temperature (24°C) and dissolved oxygen (DO) (4 mg/litre) criteria were exceeded for up to 46% and 84% of days, respectively, during a critical 40-day summer period. The poor conditions found in ponds, even within undeveloped native forest catchments, indicated that the physical characteristics of ponds (e.g., lack of shade, organic sediments) affected water quality independently of other factors (e.g., land use, riparian protection). The frequency and severity of the exceedences were related to pond size, retention time, and catchment land use; the most degraded conditions were found in rural ponds with largest surface areas and longest retention times. Ponds affected water quality and macroinvertebrate communities downstream. Exceedences of temperature and DO criteria occurred more frequently and were more severe downstream than upstream of ponds. Ponds in rural catchments increased mean daily stream temperatures 3.1-6.6°C during the critical summer period, and temperature differences were three times higher than those in bush catchments (0.8-2.0°C). Elevated M04122;temperatures were observed for hundreds of metres downstream owing to the slow rate of cooling (1°C/ 100 m), expanding the extent of adverse effects well beyond the "footprint" of the pond. Macroinvertebrate community composition (sample area 1-3 m 2 ) and values of four commonly used metrics appeared to be significantly affected by ponds in rural and native forest catchments. These finding have important management implications that should lead to modifications (e.g., breaching dams) of the estimated 4500 existing ponds in the Auckland region, where possible, and restrictions on proposals for new "o

“…regardless of peak flows during this period. Finally, if recruitment is from the estuary as is the case in some atyids (Carpenter 1983;Smith 1987;Walsh and Mitchell 1995), larval recruitment will not be observed in the streams studied and immigration of juveniles will be observed later in the season.…”

Population dynamics and life history of Paratya australiensis Kemp, 1917 (Decapoda: Atyidae) in upland rainforest streams, south-eastern Queensland, Australia

Aspects of the life history and population dynamics of Paratya australiensis were examined in headwater streams of the Conondale Range, south-eastern Queensland, particularly in relation to spatial and temporal variation in temperature and flow dynamics. Breeding period and population structure at nine sites in three subcatchments were examined during three years of monthly sampling using a non-destructive, photographic method. Breeding was restricted to the warmer months of late spring and summer. Peak abundances of ovigerous females and release of larvae occurred earlier at warmer, lower-altitude sites than at cooler, upper-altitude sites. This is consistent with the general trend for seasonal breeding in temperate and subtropical species of atyids, and perennial breeding in tropical species, and suggests that the summer breeding period of P. australiensis was strongly influenced by temperature. In subtropical, south-eastern Queensland, larvae were released just before and during the wet season. Although populations were quite resilient, disturbance from high-flow events also shaped the life history. Hydrology modified the breeding period by influencing overall abundance and recruitment success and by favouring the early release of larvae before peak flows. The reasonably well defined seasonal cycle and synchronized development appear to result from the combined effects of temperature and hydrology.
