“…However, recent evidence from molecular diet studies and aquaculture supports the idea that phyllosoma often rely on gelatinous zooplankton as prey (O'Rorke et al., ; Suzuki, Murakami, Takeyama, & Chow, ; Wakabayashi, Nagai, & Tanaka, ). This has been substantiated by captive observations of Palinurid and Scyllarid phyllosoma feeding on gelatinous zooplankton (Saunders et al., ; Wakabayashi, Sato, Hirai, & Tanaka, ), with additional evidence provided by mouth and gut morphologies that appear suited to feed on soft, fleshy foods, such as gelatinous zooplankton and detritus (Mikami, Greenwood, & Takashima, ), as well as other adaptations to resist stinging nematocysts (Kamio, Wakabayashi, Nagai, & Tanaka, ; Kamio et al., ; Wakabayashi, Nagai, & Tanaka, ). Most phyllosoma are widely thought to be generalist predators (Connell, O'Rorke, Jeffs, & Lavery, ; Jeffs, Nichols, Phleger, & Mooney, ; Saunders et al., ) and attach to medusae in a non‐selective manner (Wakabayashi, Sato, Hirai, & Tanaka, ).…”

“…This benefit, of course, would depend on the size of the jelly relative to the phyllosoma, the visual acuity of an approaching predator, and its prey preferences. The cost of the association with gelatinous zooplankton is that the phyllosoma are exposed to fouling by mucus secreted by some jellies (Niggl, Naumann, Struck, Manasrah, & Wild, ; Shanks & Graham, ) and must continuously groom using their third maxilliped (Kamio et al., ). The degree to which potential benefits of predation protection or feeding contribute to phyllosoma survival requires further study.…”

Lobster phyllosoma are known to associate with large cnidarian medusae; however, direct quantitative observations are difficult because gelatinous zooplankton are extremely fragile, and the phyllosoma easily detach from their host when sampled by plankton nets. We provide the first large scale quantitative information of the distribution of this association using an in situ imaging system, with synoptic measurements of water column properties. All phyllosoma were identified as slipper lobsters (Scyllarus chacei) and were associated with previously unreported “hosts” such as small hydromedusae, doliolids, and siphonophores in the northern Gulf of Mexico. Along the shelf, phyllosoma were more likely to be present at greater depths and higher salinities. Approximately 30% of the 347 lobster phyllosoma imaged were attached to at least one gelatinous organism, and salinity and depth were positively related to the probability of attachment on 30 October, but did not show a significant relationship for the other days of sampling. Many of the phyllosoma were larger than the gelatinous organisms to which they were attached, and some gelatinous zooplankton showed damage likely from feeding by the phyllosoma. In this coastal environment, gelatinous zooplankton tended to be more abundant in the same offshore region where phyllosoma occurred, so these gelatinous “hosts” may provide a steady food supply in the more oligotrophic waters on the outer shelf. Similar complex interactions among zooplankton may influence the life histories of other species, hindering our ability to forecast ecosystem level processes until the population level consequences of species interactions are fully understood.

“…The disadvantage of using NAGL as a biomarker is the low sensitivity of the measurement method (NMR). Although NMR analysis is a useful method for quantifying organic compounds in biological samples (Kamio et al, 2015;Moe et al, 2015), its sensitivity is not as great as the liquid chromatograph mass spectrometer (LC-MS). In the present study, urine volume decreased at the premolt stage, and measurement of NAGL in urine from one individual, using the NMR method, was not possible.…”

N-acetylglucosamino-1,5-lactone (NAGL) is a molting biomarker in the blue crab Callinectes sapidus The concentration of this compound in urine is highest at the premolt stage. Since sexually mature premolt females release sex pheromone in their urine, NAGL is a candidate sex pheromone molecule in C. sapidus This compound has not been reported in other species. In the present study, we quantified the concentration of NAGL in the urine of the helmet crab Telmessus cheiragonus, using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and found that the concentration increases toward the day of molting and decreases after molting. However, the total amount of NAGL collected from individual animals was greatest two to five days after molting, because the amount of urine collected was the lowest at the premolt stage, and it increased after molting. The highest median concentration of NAGL in T. cheiragonas was 29 μmol l(-1), which is 75% of the highest concentration reported in C. sapidus This is the first report of NAGL as a molting biomarker in a species other than C. sapidus We assume that NAGL is part of a pheromone bouquet in these two species.

“…Pada penelitian ini penyebab lain yang diduga menjadi penghambat dalam pemeliharaan larva lobster adalah mudahnya bagian tubuh Artemia menjadi kotor (Gambar 7a) akibat adanya penempelan oleh protozoa. Penempelan kotoran biasa pada tubuh larva lobster sebenarnya mampu dibersihkan oleh maxilliped ketiga maupun kaki pertama hingga kelima (Kamio et al, 2015). Namun penempelan protozoa pada kaki-kaki tersebut sulit dibersihkan dan mengganggu pergerakan, serta aktivitas larva untuk menangkap mangsa.…”

Kegiatan pembenihan lobster masih dikembangkan di Indonesia. Sintasan yang rendah dan pakan yang sesuai masih menjadi masalah utama dalam kegiatan pembenihan lobster. Artemia sebagai pakan utama diduga belum mencukupi kebutuhan nutrisi larva lobster. Upaya pemberian bahan pengaya sebagai alternatif untuk meningkatkan nutrisi diharapkan dapat meningkatkan sintasan larva lobster. Pemberian bahan pengaya yang mengandung asam lemak dokosa heksanoid acid (DHA) ke Artemia dianggap penting bagi pertumbuhan dan sintasan pada krustasea. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui performa larva lobster berdasarkan tingkat sintasan maupun perkembangan larva dengan pemberian pakan artemia yang diperkaya dengan DHA. Perlakuan yang diberikan meliputi Artemia yang baru menetas (A), Artemia yang diperkaya dengan plankton Isochrysis galbana strain Tahiti konsentrasi (1-1,5 x 106 sel/mL) (B), DHA selco dosis 0,6 g/L (C), dan Artemia inkubasi 18 jam tanpa pengayaan (D). Pemeliharaan larva dilakukan pada bak 100 L dengan sistem air stagnan. Perkembangan larva yang mampu dicapai pada semua perlakuan adalah stadia-IIIa. Pemberian Artemia yang diperkaya dengan DHA selco menunjukkan hasil sintasan yang lebih baik pada pemeliharaan enam hari pertama namun tidak memberikan pengaruh yang signifikan. Pada masa pemeliharaan sampai 20 hari terjadi penurunan sintasan (SR) mencapai hanya 1%. Hal ini disebabkan adanya bakteri dan protozoa seperti jenis protozoa Zoothamnium sp. dan bakteri berfilamen teramati menempel pada tubuh larva sehingga mengganggu pergerakan dan kemampuan larva dalam menangkap mangsa. Berdasarkan penelitian ini maka penggunaan pakan Artemia yang diperkaya DHA Selco dapat menjadi alternatif pakan larva lobster namun tetap diperlukan kontrol kualitas air yang baik.Efforts to culture spiny lobster, Panulirus homarus larvae are still being developed in Indonesia. One of the main challenges in lobster hatcheries is to find an appropriate feed and improving larval survival. Artemia has been used as the main feed and considered to have insufficient nutritional ingredient for lobster larvae. Enrichment of feed to improve its nutrient contents is expected to increase the larval survival. DHA-enriched feed is considered essential for growth and survival of crustaceans. The aim of this study was to determine the survival and development of larvae fed with DHA-enriched Artemia. The treatments consisted of newly hatched Artemia (A), enriched Artemia with phytoplankton, Isochrysis galbana strain Tahiti at a density of 1-1.5 x 106 cells/mL (B), enriched Artemia with DHA selco at a dose of 0.6 g/L (C), and Artemia incubated for 18 hours without DHA enrichment (D). Each Artemia enrichment was performed for 18 hours. Larval rearing was carried out in a 00 L tank with static water system. The achieved larval developmental stage in all treatments was stage-IIIa. Administration of enriched Artemia with DHA selco showed a better larval survival during the first six days of larval rearing. But, it did not give any significant effect. The survival was then decreased to only 1% on day-20. This was due to the presence of bacteria and protozoa which decreased water quality. Protozoa Zoothamnium sp. and filamentous bacteria were observed attaching to the body of the larvae, disrupting the movement and ability of larvae in capturing prey. Based on this research, the use of Artemia enriched with DHA selco as an alternative for lobster larvae feed, but better water quality control is still needed.
