Abstract

REMOVAL of the eyestalk from a shrimp, Palaemon serratus, induces complete dispersal of the bichromatic chromatophores of the body. Afterwards, the general coloration of the shrimp becomes red. The bands appear as marked and continuous lines. This coloured aspect is reached a few hours after the bilateral removal and eyestalkless shrimps keep it permanently, in spite of the background colour.
