Male mud fiddler crabs (Uca pugnax) were shown to hyperosmoregulate in 10% and 50% seawater (SW) and to hypoosmoregulate in 150% and 200% SW. Crabs fully immersed in the media did not osmoregulate as well as those that were free to enter or leave the medium at will ("natural" environment). Gill sodi
## Abstract A relationship between osmotic stress and gill Na^+^,K^+^βactivated ATPase was observed in plecopteran nymphs acclimated to diluted creek water and a hypertonic medium. An increase of 84% in diluted creek water is presumably related to an active uptake of sodium ions from the hypotonic
