Kerala has been one of the leading maritime states in India for the exploitation
and export of mud crabs (Raj, 1992). Many brackishwater systems like the
Ashtamudi lake, Vembanad lake, Cochin backwaters and Korapuzha estuary are
well known for their rich population of mud crabs. Realizing the imperative
need to build up a strong scientific base for proper management and conservation of the resource and also to develop proper technologiesfor seed production and
farming of mud crabs, a detailed study was undertaken on the mud crabs of Kerala
coast and the results are described in the thesis.
The thesis is presented in four chapters
