Discussion

  • males are assumed to differ from females by {p_Am} and E_Hp only
  • mod_1: Included new data: ah, ab, Lb, Wwh, Wwb, Ri, E0, age-length at several temperatures, age-wet weight, length-wet weight for males and females,age-length and age-wet weight at two food levels (COMPLETE level from 2.5 to 3.5). Added facts to the entry
  • mod_1: Model std is applied, instead of abj, since freshwater crayfish, unlike marine decapods, have no larval stage
  • mod_1: Parameter values different: zoom factor a more realistic value of around 2, rather than <1, [p_M] slightly higher, t_0 not used

Facts

  • mod_1: Development of free-living larval stage occurs inside the egg and a miniature crayfish hatches (typical for freshwater crayfish) (Ref: McLaBrin2016)
  • mod_1: Incubation in nature is relatively long, as for other Astacidae: lasts 160 to 270 days (1500 to 2200 thermal units) and includes a cold diapause (Table 13.1 in Holdich 2002).Skipping the diapause by warmer temperatures (>10C) shortens the incubation but can reduce later survival and growth. (Ref: Hold2002)
  • mod_1: Adaptations to freshwater habitat includes relatively few yolk-rich eggs combined with the loss of free larvae (direct development), and brood care pattern. (Ref: Hold2002)
