Abstract

Branchiura sowerbyi in the Donghu Lake (Wuhan, China) completes its life cycle in one year. Its production rates were 6.7 g m−2 yr−1 (wet weight) during the period from April 1962 to May 1963 and 8.6g m−2 yr−1 during the period from August 1963 to August 1964. The standing stocks in corresponding periods were 1.9g m−2 (wet weight) and 1.1g m−2, and theP/B ratios were 3.6 and 7.8. Based on the standing stock during 1973–1975, an evaluation of recent productin levels ofB. sowerbyi in Donghu Lake has also been made (i.e. 5.7–33.5g m−2 yr−1).
