The fecundity, morphometry and the post embryonic development of Caridina simoni which is the commonest atyid shrimp in Sri Lanka were studied. The fecundity values ranged from 12-55. There was a linear relationship between the logarithmic values of fecundity and body length and the same relationship was obtained for body length and weight. It was seen that the developmental period of this species was less than six days and during development it passed through six zoeal stages.Journal
