Distribution "This common mysid is widely distributed throughout the shallow coastal waters of India. It has been recorded from the brackish waters and estuaries throughout the year (W.Tattersall 1914; Panikkar and Aiyar 1937; George 1958; Gupta and Gupta 1984; Chandramohan 1983; Sarkar and Chowdhury 1986) and also from the fresh waters of Orissa, Midnapur, Calcutta and Adayar (W.Tattersall 1915) and from the fish and prawn culture ponds in Java (Nouvel, 1957), Singapore (O.Tattersall 1960), Malaysia (O.

Depth range littoral [details]Distribution "This common mysid is widely distributed throughout the shallow coastal waters of India. It has been recorded from the brackish waters and estuaries throughout the year (W.Tattersall 1914; Panikkar and Aiyar 1937; George 1958; Gupta and Gupta 1984; Chandramohan 1983; Sarkar and Chowdhury 1986) and also from the fresh waters of Orissa, Midnapur, Calcutta and Adayar (W.Tattersall 1915) and from the fish and prawn culture ponds in Java (Nouvel, 1957), Singapore (O.Tattersall 1960), Malaysia (O. Tattersall 1965), and Thailand (Murano 1988)." [details] Environment This is probably the most abundant species of Mysidacea living around Indian coasts. This species has got great adaptability to varying degrees of salinity as instanced by its occurrence in the highly fluctuating saline conditions of the salt pan and this ability ensures its wide distribution from seawater to almost up to fresh water. It usually lives in swarms/shoals/ aggregations and the number of individuals in a swarm varies from few hundreds to several thousands. [details] Habitat Common and abundant brackishwater species, also found in freshwaters up to 290 riverine km from the sea (Nesemann et al. 2007, Biju & Panampunnayil 2010). [details]
