The tolerances of the first zoeal stage of the crab Scylla serrata (Forskal) have been investigated in 61 different temperature-salinity combinations. Exposure to temperatures above 25 ~ or to salinities below t7.5 ~ caused considerable mortality; therefore, zoeae are unsuited r estuarine conditions

The natural diet, rate of foregut clearance and diurnal activity of the crab Scylla serrata were determined. The gut volume is related to size of crab as gut volume (ml) = O.07e O-033x, where x = carapace width in millimetres. Fifty per cent of crabs collected in Australia and South Africa contained
