碩士 / 國立臺灣海洋大學 / 海洋生物研究所 / 92 / Abstract
The deep sea pandalid shrimps Heterocarpus sibogae and H. hayashii from northest Taiwan were studied. Both shrimps reproduce throught out the year and with the highest reproductive activity in March to August. Ovigerous females can produce 26,896 eggs in H. sibogae and 32,620 eggs in H. hayashii . The sizes at first maturity are estimated as 27.06 mm cl for H. sibogae females and 20.13 mm cl for H. sibogae males. For H. hayashii the sizes at first maturity are estimated as 24.01 mm cl for females and 20.24 mm cl for males. Bioluminescence emission in H. sibogae was studied. Under the laboratory condition, 56% of the shrimps could still emit light after two weeks rearings and with the longest continuous emission time being 245 seconds.
