Abstract
The thalassinidean shrimp Calocaris macandreae inhabits complex burrows in marine muddy sediments which are subject to severe hypoxia.In the laboratory, C.macandreae was highly tolerant of anoxia (LT(50) = 43 hr) and accumulated L-lactate as the major end-product of anaerobic metabolism.Metabolic recovery of C.macandreae from anoxia was slow; haemolymph lactate concentrations returned to normal levels after approximately 40 hr.Anaerobic metabolism appeared to be initiated only during exposure to severe hypoxia (PO2 < 7 Torr).
