“…Consequently the origin of the disease tends to be referred to as external, related primarily to injury, especially in a farm environment (Sindermann 1977). The cause of the infection of the gills resulting in the destruction of the gill structure in various shrimp species and in Homarus americanus (MilneEdwards) which have either been farmed, or kept for substantial periods of time in crowded conditions has been variously assigned to black necrotic disease, fungal infections or heavy metals (Uzmann & Haynes 1968, Rinaldo & Yevich 1974, Fisher 1977, Lightner 1977.…”

The incidence of Black Necrotic Disease affecting a) the carapace and other areas of the external skeleton, and b) the gills, was recorded for crab species from sites on the west coast of Scotland. The highest incidence of carapace infection was found in Cancer pagurus, with Carcinus maenas, Liocarcinus puber, L. corrugatus and L. depurator showing a lower incidence; other species of crabs, especially from sandy habitats, and. species of Natantia showed no infection. The highest incidence of gill disease was in L. depurator and L. corrugatus, while L. puber and Hyas arenarius showed a lower occurrence; other species of crabs, and species of Natantia showed very low or zero incidence. The percentage incidence and severity of attack apparently was not dependent on depth of capture, nor was there any significant seasonal pattern of variation, but some species showed significant differences in percentage incidence between the sexes, and Carcinus maenas parasitised by the rhizocephalan Sacculina carcini showed a higher incidence than those which were not infested with this parasite.

“…At least two decapod crustaceans, the Pendulous shrimp Dichelopandaulus leptocerus and the American lobster Homarus americanus, showed diseases attributed to chytrid fungi [19,9]. In addition, chytrid fungi were found to parasitise the eggs of the prawn Alpheus saulcyi [18].…”

In the present study we report ectoparasite infection in pond-cultured Macrobrachium rosenbergii from southeast coast of Tamilnadu, India. The symptoms included a thick layer of whitish hair covering the entire body, sluggish movement, decrease of food intake and abnormal migration to the pond corners. Laboratorial analysis identified fungi from the genus Chytridiomyces, which have been associated to mortalities during freshwater prawn culture in India.
