Abstract

The effects of low salinities (8 and 5‰) on hydric and mineral balance of males and females of Palaemon adspersus were studied. In hypo-saline media, both sexes showed noticeable possibilities of osmoregulation due to modifications of passive permeability of the cell membranes and by stimulation of the active ionic transport mechanisms.
