Ultrastructural changes in the cuticle of Paleamon serrifer associated with the intermolt cycle were examined and quantified as changes in the cuticular thickness. The cuticular thickness in each zoea stage increased with time elapsed after molting. The cuticle in the premolt stage was about 1.5 and 3 times thicker than that in the postmolt and intermolt stage, respectively. The cuticle in the premolt stage, including the molting space, was more than 5 times as thick as in the postmolt stage. In addition, newly hatched larvae were individually reared in the laboratory and body length for each specimen was measured frequently until the end of zoea VI. An average increase in body length between one zoea stage and the next is about $10\%$ of the length of the previous stage. Within individual zoea stages, the premolt stage had a body length some 0.3% longer than that of the postmolt stage, indicating a growth rate of about 0.03 mm/d.

담수산 징거미새우, Macrobrachium nipponense의 유생을 부화후부터 후기유생단계까지의 전 유생기간동안 수온 $25^{\circ}C$, 염분 $7\%0$의 일정한 조건하에서 사육하고 섭이율, 호흡율, 배설율 및 성장율을 측정하였다. 성장은 건중, 탄소, 질소, 수소 및 단백질, 지질의 함량변화로서 측정하였는데 단백질보다는 지질이 더 높은 비율로 축적되었다. 그리고 모든 생리적, 생화학적 특성은 각 유생단계간에 그리고 개체의 탈피주기에 따라서 상당한 변화를 나타내었다. 평균섭이율은 탈피간기에 가장 높았으며 bell-shaped 양상을 나타내었다. 호흡율은 부화후부터 후기유생 단계까지 계속 증가한 반면, 배설율은 탈피간기에서 증가하여 bell-shaped 양상을 나타내었다. 이러한 생리적, 생화학적 자료로서 시간의 경과에 따른 발생변화의 양상과 생물에너지학적 효율을 분석하기 위하여 섭이율, 성장율, 호흡율 및 배설율등을 회귀방정식으로 나타내었다. 탈피주기동안 탄소는 초기에 증가하는 경향을 나타내었으며, 암모니아 질소는 탈피전기까지 꾸준히 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다. 단백질은 탈피전기의 중기에 다소 높은 축적을 보이면서 탈피전기의 말기까지 일정량을 유지하면서 체물질을 구성하는 우점성분으로 일정하게 유지되었다.

This study has been conducted to investigate the molting behavior and the effects of rearing temperature and day length on molting in the behavior and the effects of rearing temperature and day length on molting in the giant freshwater prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii reared in the laboratory. The results obtained were summarized as follow: 1. After pre-spawning molting, the protopodites of 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th except 5th pleopod bore new breeding setae which conserve eggs in the brooding chamber and the basis of 3rd, 4th, and 5th pereiopods bore new breeding dresses which transport the ovulated eggs into the brooding chamber. 2. Adult females reared in 27.5-$29.4^{\circ}C$ molted 10-12 times per year at interval of 27-35 days, of which four or six moltings were common molting for growth and another four or five moltings were pre-spawning molting for spwaning and brooding. In winter season, pre-spawning molting did not happen to most of adult females in spite of the same temperature. 3. Duration of intermolt cycle was 31-38 days and 26-30 days at 25.3- $26.5^{\circ}C$ and 28.7- $30.4^{\circ}C$ of rearing temperature, respectively.
