Class Malacostraca14 (rarely 15) body segments (torax (pereon) of 8 segments and abdomen (pleon) of 6 (rarely 7) segments). The head bears 5 pairs of appendages. Each thoracic segment bears a pair of appendages, basically biramous but variously modifed, with a gill developed at the base of each appendage. Each abdominal segment is similarly equipped with a pair of biramous appendages. The last pair of abdominal appendages is often broadened, and with the last abdominal segment, the telson, constitutes a tail fan. (Hayward, Ryland, 1990) |
