- Title
- Crustacean diversity of the Gulf of Kachchh, Gujarat, India
- Abstract
- This communication based on a survey of the Gulf of Kachchh reports the occurrence of 39 species of crustaceans belonging to 4 orders and 18 families. They included one endemic species, Metapenaeus kutchensis. Three species viz., Etisus laevimanus, Portunus (Portunus) pelagicus and Petrolisthes boscii were most common and abundant while Lepas (Anatifa) testudinata, Atergatis floridus and Panulirus polyphagus were very rare. The study adds one species Charybdis helleri to the previously known list of crustacean diversity from the area.
