Abstract:Taxonomy, length-weight relationship, food and feeding habits of flower moon crab Matuta planipes Fabricius, 1798 from coastal waters of Gopalpur, Odisha, India
ABSTRACTThe relationship between carapace length (CL), carapace width (CW) and total weight (TW) in the flower moon crab Matuta planipes Fabricius, 1798 was studied and found to be CL = 0.144+1.319 CW and CL = 0.356+1.273 CL for males and females respectively. In case of the carapace width and total weight, the relationships were: TW = 0.272 CW 3.011 … Show more
