Abstract

The removal of the eyestalks caused a substantial increase in the haemolymph-
chloride level in batches of prawns, Penaeus indicus, kept in laboratory
and, when the eyestalk exitract was injected into them, the chloride level decreased
again and reverted back | tp normal. The findings are deemed as a pointer to
the possible role of eyestalk endocrines in ionic regulation.
