Abstract:
Mantis shrimps are fierce predatory crustaceans in modern day oceans. Fossils of mantis shrimps are still a rarity. They occurred back in the Carboniferous, 300 million years ago, but already with quite a diversity of different forms. Interestingly, all these fossils are comparably large, usually several centimetres body length. From the Mesozoic, numerous mantis shrimp fossils have also been reported, the largest specimens being far in the centimetre range as well, but the smallest specimens being only about 4–5 mm. With this data set, we can reconstruct aspects of the life history for (at least some) Mesozoic mantis shrimps, but not for Palaeozoic forms. We report here a new fossil mantis shrimp specimen from the Carboniferous Bear Gulch limestones, USA. The specimen is quite small, in its rolled-up position about 10 mm across the laterally preserved body, but 25 mm in estimated total length. This is considerably shorter than any mantis shrimp so far known from the Palaeozoic. Hence, the specimen provides an important data point. Furthermore, it provides some indications where we could possibly find more specimens of comparable or even smaller size: The specimen resembles certain co-occurring fossils, representatives of Cyclida, in some aspects, suggesting that among the material of Cyclida we might find more small-sized mantis shrimps.

Abstract:
Tanjung Jabung Barat Regency has a great potential for mantis shrimp (Harpiosquilla raphidea) resources. This commodity is highly valued, as its price range from Rp. 143,600 to 180,700 for each individual. Annually, the total catches constitute 125,000-225,000 individuals, which become one of export commodities to various countries. In Tanjung Jabung barat, the mantis shrimp has been caught by using gillnet with mesh size of 10 cm. Unfortunately, mantis shrimp fishing deal with a significant number of bycatch and discards, which potentially have negative impact on sustainable fisheries resources. Therefore, the purposes of this study was to emphasis on sustainable fishing effort of mantis shrimp and identify the composition and proportion of bycatch and discards. A series of surveys was conducted for collecting the amount of species caught by gillnet during mantis shrimp fishing operation. The result shows that the bycatch and discards dominated the total catches making up to 54.99% (7 species) and 22.69% (7 species) respectively. Mean while, the total of fishing catches for mantis shrimp was 22.32%.Keywords: bycatch, discards, gillnet, mantis shrimp (Harpiosquilla raphidea)

Abstract:
Udang mantis jenis Harpiosquilla raphidea merupakan salah satu jenis krustase hasil tangkapan bernilai ekonomi pada beberapa daerah pesisir di Indonesia. Namun komposisi biokimia jenis ini belum banyak diketahui. Oleh karena itu, tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk memepelajari secara kuantitatif unsure-unsur penting yang terkandung dalam daging udang mantis yang berasal dari perairan Kuala Tungkal, Jambi dan Cirebon. Hasil penelitian memperlihatkan bahwa rendemen udang mantis dari kedua lokasi tidak berbeda nyata. Selain itu, udang dari kedua lokasi juga tidak memperlihatkan kandungan mikro mineral (seng, besi dan tembaga) yang berbeda. Namun demikian, udang mantis Kuala Tungkal, Jambi memiliki kandungan natrium, kalium dan kalsium lebih tinggi dibandingkan udang mantis Cirebon. Tetapi, udang mantis Cirebon kandungan magnesiumnya lebih baik. Pemasakan dengan media asam dan dengan proses perebusan akan menghasilkan tingkat kelarutan mineral tertinggi. Kata kunci: Udang mantis, Harpiosquilla raphidea, komposisi biokimia, kelarutan mineralThe mantis shrimp, Harpiosquilla raphidea, is a valued crustacean species captured mainly in some Indonesian coastal waters. Yet, the biochemical composition of this species is still inadequately understood. For that reason, the aim of this study was to quantify the content of essential elements of specimens from the Kuala Tungkal, Jambi and Cirebon Coast. The meat yield of the shrimps collected from the two locations are not significantly different. In terms of proximate chemical composition, all chemical characters of the shrimps from Kuala Tungkal, Jambi and Cirebon are not significantly different, except the fat content. As far as the mineral composition is concerned, no differences were observed between either two locations for micro minerals (zinc, iron and copper). However, the shrimps of Kuala Tungkal, Jambi coast showed higher sodium, potassium and calcium contents than those of Cirebon coast. Yet, for magnesium the shrimp of Cirebon had higher content in comparison with that of Kuala Tungkal, Jambi. Media acid with boiling process would bring about the highest solubility of minerals. Key words: Mantis shrimp, Harpiosquilla raphidea, biochemical composition, mineral solubility

Abstract:
AbstractEyes of stomatopod crustaceans, or mantis shrimps, contain the greatest diversity of visual pigments yet described in any species, with as many as ten or more spectral classes present in a single retina. In this study, the eyes of seven species of mantis shrimp from three superfamilies of stomatopods were examined for their content of retinoids. Only retinal and retinol were found; neither hydroxyretinoids nor dehydroretinoids were detected. The principal isomers were 11 -cis and all-trans. The eyes of most of these species contain stores of 11 -cis retinol, principally as retinyl esters, and in amounts in excess of retinal. Squilla empusa is particularly noteworthy, with over 5000 pmoles of retinol per eye.

Abstract:
The mantis shrimp Gonodactylus oerstedii is known to possess eyes capable of colour and polarised light vision. The apposition compound eyes of these creatures are highly mobile and their ommatidia are specialised to analyse the spectral and e-vector qualities of light in a central strip of the eye called the midband. The retina of the midband of Rows 1-4 is tiered with each row being sensitive to a narrow region of the colour spectrum. Row 5 and 6 ommatidia possess many structural features designed to allow the e-vector direction of light to be detected. This thesis investigates the neuroanatomy in the neuropile regions below the retina in an attempt to elucidate the mechanisms which allow colour and polarised light vision to take place. In Chapter 2 the retina-lamina projection of the retinal axons is studied in an ommatidium in Row 3 of the midband, and the findings suggest that the stomatopod is similar to all other crustacea so far studied, despite its unusual retina. Chapter 3 investigates the neuroanatomy of the medulla neuropile regions. A novel region of the medulla externa which deals with colour information is discovered. In Chapter 4 the lamina of Rows 1-4 is looked at in more detail, with the number of monopolar cells and the detailed arrangements of the retinular cell terminals being ascertained. The terminals sensitive to different regions of the spectrum are located in different areas of the lamina cartridge. Chapter 5 looks at many of the issues above but this time in relation to rows 5 and 6 of the midband, which are specialised for polarisation vision. The lamina neuropile is very different to that of Rows 1-4 and again a specialised region of the medulla externa is found which processes information from these rows. This thesis provides evidence that the optic lobes of Gonodactylus oerstedii are comparable to other crustacea but nevertheless may possess some intriguing specialisations related to their extraordinary colour and polarised light vision.

Resumo: Os siriboias são crustáceos pertencentes à ordem Stomatopoda e conhecidos pelo segundo toracópode modificado em garra raptorial, capaz de golpear e quebrar conchas de moluscos, e capturar suas presas. Podem ser separados em dois grupos de acordo com a morfologia das garras: o grupo esmagador, que desfere golpes em sua presa similares a socos de alta potência, e o outro grupo, perfurador, que perfura a presa com as projeções pontiagudas localizadas no dáctilo, último segmento da garra. Existem frequentes relatos anedóticos sobre acidentes em humanos causados por esses crustáceos, mas as informações são imprecisas e muitas vezes o animal não é corretamente identificado pelas vítimas. Este estudo apresenta o relato de 23 pescadores de Ubatuba - São Paulo, que afirmam considerar o siriboia perigoso e que evitam contato direto por conhecerem o risco que o animal oferece, e que os acidentes costumam acontecer com pessoas pouco familiarizadas com o crustáceo. Inclui um relato de lesão causada pelo urópode, informação não documentada anteriormente, e quatro relatos documentados de lesões causadas pelas garras em seres humanos. O estudo resultou ainda em um material informativo sobre os siriboias e prevenção dos acidentes.
Abstract: Siriboias are crustaceans belonging to the order Stomatopoda that are known for the second thoracopods modified to raptorial claws, capable of striking and breaking shells of molluscs and capturing their prey. They can be classified in two groups according to the morphology of the claws: the smasher group, which strikes its prey similar to high-powered punches, and the spearer, which pierces the prey with pointed projections located in the dactyl, last segment of the claw. There are frequent anedoctal reports of human injuries caused by these crustaceans, but the information is inaccurate and often the animal is not correctly identified by the victims. This study presents tertimony of 23 fishermen from Ubatuba - São Paulo, which claim to consider the siriboia as dangerous animals and avoid direct contact, due to know the risk offered. The injuries usually happen in people unfamiliar with the crustacean. It includes one report of an injury caused by the uropod, previously undocumented information, and four documented reports of human injuries caused by the claws. The study proposes informative material about the siriboias and the prevention of injuries.

Abstract:
The focus of this thesis is on engineering effective color vision subsystems for object segmentation based on hue and discontinuities in hue. Hue, which encodes color, is a psychophysical scalar variable defined on the ring [0, [pi]]. A computational theory justifying the use of hue for distinguishing material differences is established and novel algorithms are developed to detect its discontinuity. Although the focus of this thesis has been on anthropocentrically based trichromatic systems, some effort is placed in exploring the multi-dimensional spaces of more than three primary colors. A hypothetical explanation is proposed of the 11 spectral sensors of the Mantis shrimp, which performs functionally as a biological spectrum analyzer. The importance of the opponency calculation is emphasized. Its role in optimum filter design offers hyperacuity in the spectral domain. This work encompasses spectral filter design, color space evaluation, computer vision algorithm development, and hardware implementation in custom analog VLSI circuitry. A one pixel (zero dimension) "intensity/normalized-color/hue" sensor is built based on a trichromatic system. For the basic analog circuit element required in hue segmentation, the current-fuse is developed. Guidelines for building higher dimensional sensors in both spatial and spectral domains are presented. Practical offshoots from this research range from color quality sensors for inexpensive printing to vision systems for robotics and autonomous vehicles.

Abstract:
A physical model was built to study the properties of the feeding strike of the mantis shrimp that are responsible for drag reduction and cavitation control. The model had three goals: 1) The model was to be outfitted with a method to collect kinematic, force and cavitation data. 2) The velocity and acceleration profile of the model were to be predicted with a mathematical model of the mechanism. 3) The model was to match as many drag and cavitation sensitive properties of the mantis shrimp strike as feasible and have a means to control the rest. The first iteration of the model met the first goal but not the second or third. It matched the strike in maximum velocity, appendage size and shape and environmental temperature and salinity but did not control acceleration profile, water quality or pressure. Data collected with high-speed video of strikes of the model and Gonodactylus smithii showed the model to cavitate at speeds at which no cavitation was seen in animal strikes. The model was redesigned to be driven by the stored elastic energy in the deflection of a beam spring. The redesigned model reached the animals maximum accelerations but not velocities. Environmental variation was found to not substantially contribute to the variation in cavitation onset velocity between the model and animal experiments.

This study’s framework is used to bioeconomic of a renewable resource that is used by Gordon-Schaefer models, net revenues to be equal to price times harvest, cost to be equal to cost coefficient times fishing effort being basic analysis. This empirical research utilized mantis shrimp resource statistic data from 1998 to 2008 for conducting the harvest, price, cost, and catch per unit effort by Fishery Bureau. Adding Directorate General of Postal Remittance and Saving Bank announced about one year deposits rates of 2011 1.37% to be discounted rate for the empirical research analysis. The analysis parameters were estimated by Leslie-Delury’s model and Graham’s method including regression analysis, derived resource stock, catch ability coefficient, resource’s intrinsic growth rate, environmental carrying capacity, and importing in maximizing the present value of the net revenue model, substituted real parameter''s value Y, p, c, δ. Solving equilibrium Y, X, E, and comparative statistical analysis of three kinds of fisheries economic models (static, dynamic, and, open access). In the current study, we estimated the status of resources stock of mantis shrimps in 2039 and how external shocks will be occurred in future. Likewise, we predicted the impact of the modification of endogenous variables. Our results may provide a management of fishery resources how to settle a policy in the future. The empirical results were confirmed by model derivation results, then the resources of mantis shrimp in Taiwan hasn’t overfishing condition existed, but the resource of mantis shrimp harvest supply by fisherman that there is the risk of a gradual declined and the collapse of the fishing situation. Caused by many related published literatures about the resource of mantis shrimp in the neighboring mainland China, Japan district that have been overfishing, regulatory authorities should take precautions, in the general management project, such as restraint on harvesting gears, fishing quota, etc. The regulatory authorities need to early prepare for the sustainable management. Furthermore, both of the bioeconomics and economics are important when we reach a decision.

The aim of this study was to understand the composition of shrimp, crab and mantis shrimp assemblages and to investigate the relationship between their seasonal variation and environmental factors in the southern coastal waters off the Zhuoshui River. Furthermore, based on the growth parameters and seasonal variations of several dominant species, their estuarine utilization was hypothesized. The sampling was conducted at three stations on the southern coast of the Zhuoshui River mouth from March 2012 to September 2014. Environmental factors including seawater surface temperature, surface salinity, dissolved oxygen, chlorophyll a concentration, turbidity, nitrates, silicate and sulfite were collected simultaneously. The results revealed that seawater temperature, dissolved oxygen, chlorophyll a concentration, turbidity, transparency, nitrates, nitrite and sulfite varied monthly. Higher temperatures and chlorophyll a concentration were related to the wet season. In total, 61 species belonging to 15 families and 33 genera were collected, but the accumulative species number was not steady. The seven dominant species by abundance were Parapenaeopsis hardwickii(66.1%), Portunus hastatoides(10.0%), Metapenaeus joyneri(7.6%), Parapenaeopsis cornuta(2.7%), Penaeus indicus(1.9%), Metapenaeus ensis(1.6%), and Nematopalaemon tenuipes(1.4%). Significant temporal variation of the assemblages was observed due to the different compositions of the dominant species. Among the seven, N. tenuipes was abundant between December and February, whereas the others were more abundant from June to August. P. hardwickii and P. hastatoides could be captured throughout the year, but with seasonal variation. The abundance of M. joyneri and N. tenuipes controlled the composition of dry and wet season groups, respectively. The grouping of estuarine crustaceans is related to seasonal variation of the hydrological characteristics. M. ensis and P. cornuta appear at high water flow and high temperature, whereas N. tenuipes prefers low temperature, high nutrients and high turbidity. Temporal variation of the assemblages was related to the recruitment and habitat usage of the dominant species. In early summer and late autumn, P. hardwickii and P. hastatoides recruit in coastal waters and are abundant when the temperature is rising during the wet season. As the water temperature is higher than 16°C on the southern coast of the Zhuoshui River mouth, less mature M. joyneri were captured and a large number of sub-adults appeared from June to September, revealing a vital nursery ground for the juvenile M. joyneri.

Abstract:

There is a current interest in exploring novel microstructural architectures that take advantage of the response of independent phases. Current guidelines in materials design are not just based on changing the properties of the different phases but also on modifying its base architecture. Hence, the mechanical behavior of composite materials can be adjusted by designing microstructures that alternate stiff and flexible constituents, combined with well-designed architectures. One source of inspiration to achieve these designs is Nature, where biologically mineralized composites can be taken as an example for the design of next-generation structural materials due to their low density, high-strength, and toughness currently unmatched by engineering technologies.


The present work focuses on the modeling of biologically inspired composites, where the source of inspiration is the dactyl club of the Stomatopod. Particularly, we built computational models for different regions of the dactyl club, namely: periodic and impact regions. Thus, this research aimed to analyze the effect of microstructure present in the impact and periodic regions in the impact resistance associated with the materials present in the appendage of stomatopods. The main contributions of this work are twofold. First, we built a model that helped to study wave propagation in the periodic region. This helped to identify possible bandgaps and their influence on the wave propagation through the material. Later on, we extended what we learned from this material to study the bandgap tuning in bioinspired composites. Second, we helped to unveil new microstructural features in the impact region of the dactyl club. Specifically, the sinusoidally helicoidal composite and bicontinuous particulate layer. For these, structural features we developed finite element models to understand their mechanical behavior.


The results in this work help to elucidate some new microstructures and present some guidelines in the design of architectured materials. By combining the current synthesis and advanced manufacturing methods with design elements from these biological structures we can realize potential blueprints for a new generation of advanced materials with a broad range of applications. Some of the possible applications include impact- and vibration-resistant coatings for buildings, body armors, aircraft, and automobiles, as well as in abrasion- and impact-resistant wind turbines.

Abstract:
This chapter describes the taxonomy of Stomatopoda. Stomatopods, also known as mantis shrimps, because of their resemblance to a praying mantis, are a small order of marine malacostracan crustaceans related to shrimps, crabs, and lobsters. There are around 450 extant stomatopod species in the world and the majority of them live in tropical and sub-tropical regions, although a few species occur in temperate and boreal waters. The chapter covers their life cycle, ecology, and general morphology. It includes a section that indicates the systematic placement of the taxon described within the tree of life, and lists the key marine representative illustrated in the chapter (usually to genus or family level). This section also provides information on the taxonomic authorities responsible for the classification adopted, recent changes which might have occurred, and lists relevant taxonomic sources.

Abstract:
This chapter explores how vision is used by animals and the diversity in ways of seeing. It first details how colour vision works, focusing on the example of honeybees, which, like humans, are trichromatic and have good colour vision. Bees have a dedicated ultraviolet (UV) receptor, and then one for seeing shortwave (blue) and mediumwave (green) light. Other animals deviate more substantially, in that they have either more or fewer receptors used in colour vision, and hence different ‘dimensions’ of colour perception. The chapter then considers how jumping spiders use UV vision in identifying known or suitable prey species, as well as in mating. It also looks at polarisation vision in mantis shrimp. Mantis shrimp are bizarre in the number of receptors they have, each sensitive to different parts of the light spectrum. Finally, the chapter assesses how toads recognize prey from non-prey. The toad’s visual system acts as a ‘feature detector’ based on several stages of visual processing, producing a quick and appropriate response to a set of criteria that reliably encode objects of particular importance—in this case, food.

Abstract:
A review of small-scale fisheries of marine crustacean is here presented, indicating the main biological traits of the target species, levels and methods of capture, prices and markets, as well as fishing regulations. Edible barnacles are exploited in Spain, Japan, and Chile with low levels of capture (<500 t per year) and can be sold at high prices in the Iberian market. Stomatopods (mantis shrimps) are captured in the vicinity of the river mouths through trawl fisheries in Mediterranean Sea and in the western Indo-Pacific. Their landings fluctuate between 4,000 and 7,000 t per year, with levels of overexploitation reported for some Asian fisheries. A recent harvesting of sandhoppers (amphipods) has been reported from sandy beaches of Chile for aquarium food, with annual yields of 10–15 t dry mass. Other amphipod species (lysianassoids) are exploited in Canada mainly for fish food. These fisheries are characterized by a lack of biological and fishing parameters, management measurements, and regulations of the exploitation of their natural populations. However, in the cases of the European fisheries (stalked barnacles and stomatopods), some regulations have been implemented, such as closing periods, extraction quotas, and minimum legal sizes. Ecological studies are necessary to evaluate the possible impacts on biological interactions and food webs on the populations of the commercial extraction in these fisheries.

Abstract:
In order to simulate the bottom trawl fishery in Ise Bay, a typical semi-enclosed bay in Japan, a fishery simulator has been developed that consists of a fish behavioral model and a fishing operations model. The fish behavioral models are developed for two major target species, conger eel and mantis shrimp, which consider the fish migration as well as the growth and the population change. The fish behavioral models are combined with a fishing operation model, which predicts the behavior of trawling boats based on economic conditions and resource distribution as well as the fish catch amount by each boat. The model is applied to evaluate the effects of fishery management, and it is investigated that how the control of fishing efforts or number of owned fishing boats affects the profit of the target fishery. The mesh size of the trawling net which maximizes the total catch is estimated considering both conger eel and mantis shrimp. At the target ports, reduction of boats number will increase the profit because the effect of fixed cost change exceeds the impact of fish catch decrease. However, the optimum reduction rate is different in each port and interactive effect should be also considered.
