Abstract
The population dynamics of the mysid crustacean Praunus flexuosus have been studied at Ardmaddy Bay, Loch Etive. A salinity tolerance range of 2–33‰ has been demonstrated, over which the body tissues experience the range 11–28‰. Comparison is made between the osmoregulatory capacity of Praunus flexuosus and the closely related Neomysis integer.Keywords
