Winning the biodiversity arms race among freshwater gastropods: competition and coexistence through shell variability and predator avoidance (2010, background): “Prawns as predators There are more than 200 known species of the freshwater shrimp Macrobrachium that are widely distributed throughout the tropics and subtropics (Bowles et al., 2000; Jayachandran, 2001; De Grave et al., 2008).”
Amphidromy in shrimps: a life cycle between rivers and the sea (2013, background): “Although the majority of carideans are marine, approximately 25% of the 3,400 described species live in freshwater (De Grave et al., 2008; De Grave & Fransen, 2011).”
Phylogeny of the Infraorder Caridea Based on Mitochondrial and Nuclear Genes (Crustacea: Decapoda) (2009, background): “Both families inhabit freshwater in South America (Euryrhynchidae) and West Africa (Euryrhynchidae, Desmocarididae) (De Grave et al. 2008) and share the presence of cuspidate setae on their appendix masculina in addition to other morphological features (De Grave 2007).”
