Intra- and Inter-specific variation of four Acetess species (Crustacea: Decapoda: Sergestidae) sampled along the West Coast of Peninsular Malaysia

The intra- and inter-specific variation of Acetes shrimps were evaluated based on samples collected from in-shore catches and off-shore trawling around the west coast of Peninsular Malaysia. Species captured were identified as Acetes indicus, A. serrulatus, A. japonicus and A. sibogae. A region of t...
