Planktonic decapods (Natantia Group) in Khur-e-musa creek (Khouzestan Province), Iran
This project was designed to study the distribution und density of planktonic decapods (Natantia Groups) in Khur-e-musa creek. Sampling was carried out during the period of October 1998 till July 1999, and identified species were classified to two suborders. Suborder Penaeidae consisted of 2 families and 5 genera and suborder Caridea consisted of 6 families and 6 genera.
