Title: | A simple device for the separation of weak larvae of Macrobrachium rosenbergii (De Man) |

Abstract: | Larvae of Macrobrachium rosenbergii (De Man) are
photopositive (Ling 1969a.b) and negatively rheotactic.
While investigating larval diseases of M, rosenbergii
it was observed that weak larvae failed to show both
these responses. It was felt that this lack of response
could be used to develop a device for separating the
weak larvae from the apparently healthy ones. Such a
device would be a valuable tool for assessing the health
of a batch in terms of the percentage of 'healthy' and
'weak' larvae. What follows is a description and mode
of operation of the 'photo-flow' device developed by
the authors |
