We studied seasonal abundance, vertical distribution and life history traits of the Mediterranean mud shrimp (Upogebia pusilla) in the mediolittoral zone in Slovenia. At two localities (Strunjan and Lazaret), quantitative samples from three plots (1 m2 each) at (0 cm), below (-50 cm) and above (+50 cm) mean water level were taken once every two mon...

In the Mediterranean sea, Upogebia pusilla (Petagna, 1792) is one of the most common burrowing animals in mediolittoral soft sediments. We collected samples monthly (in alternation) from two sampling localities at the Slovenian coast in order to explore biometric characteristics and temporal abundance of animals, as well as to notice whether there...

This species has been used as important fishing bait for centuries. In order to explore seasonal dynamics and gather biometric features of the sp...
