Discussion
- Model std is applied, instead of abj, since freshwater crayfish, unlike marine decapods, have no larval stage
Facts
- Reproduces sexually, but research suggests it may also reproduce by parthenogenesis (Ref: Wiki)
- From photo: Carapace length = 0.555 * total length (Ref: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Rode_amerikaanse_rivierkreeft,_Red_Swamp_Crayfish,_Procambarus_clarkii_04.jpg)
