    Molecular population structure of the kuruma shrimp Penaeus japonicus species complex in western Pacific

    In a previous study on the kuruma shrimp Penaeus japonicus from the South China Sea, we detected high genetic divergence between two morphologically similar varieties (I and II) with distinct color banding patter...

    Lack of mtDNA and morphological differentiation between two acorn barnacles Tetraclita japonica and T. formosana differing in parietes colours and geographical distribution

    Tetraclita japonica and T. formosana are common intertidal barnacles with similar morphology, which leads to uncertainty in their species status. In the present study, we try to elucidate the taxonomic status of...
