Experimental fishings of deep shellfish in water of Martinique (pandalidae, nephropidae).
The yields, compared to those of commercial fishermen, were medium or good for Plesionika edwardsi and P. (macropoda) polyacanthomerus between depths of 200 - 300 metres ; for Plesionika laevis and Eunephrops cadenasi in the vicinity 500 metres ; for Heterocarpus laevigatus below 700 metres.
Information is given on the isopoda of the family of Cirolanidae, Bathynomus giganteus, which could eventually, under certain conditions, become of interest to the fishermen.

 Saltwater Aquarium Guide -- Lobsters
Lobsters can be divided into three families: the Palinuridae (Spiny Lobster), the Scyllaridae (Slipper Lobster), and the Nephropidae (ordinary Lobsters).
While their nocturnal behavior will decrease their attractiveness for the home aquarium, they are totally safe with all invertebrates and fish with the exception of short-spined Urchins.
The last family, Nephropidae, include the larger, commercially caught food Lobsters and several tropical lobsters of the genus Enoplometopus.

Tshudy, D., and Sorhannus, U. Hoploparia, the best-known fossil clawed lobster (Family Nephropidae) is a "wastebasket" genus.
This fossil genus has been interpreted by many paleontologists to be morphologically primitive and ancestral to some or many modern clawed lobster (Family Nephropidae) genera.
Prior to the present study, two separate issues raised the first author’s suspicion that Hoploparia is a “wastebasket” genus – a default genus for any fossil lobster with mainstream nephropid morphology.

While most copepods are holoplanktonic, decapod larvae are meroplanktonic with a pelagic larval development ranging from days (Penaeidae) to weeks (most Palaemonidae, Nephropidae) or months (some Palaemonidae, Palinuridae).
Reproductive strategies result in either the early release of large numbers of small planktotrophic larvae (Penaeidae) or smaller numbers of advanced larvae after parental incubation (Brachyura, Palaemonidae, Nephropidae, Palinuridae).
Hence it follows that commercially cultured decapod larvae exhibit a wide range of feeding strategies exploiting most of the trophic levels found within the planktonic ecosystem.
