. The Biological bulletin. Biology; Zoology; Biology; Marine Biology. 126 J. BRUCE GUYSELMAN CO tr o - - - 2 - o HJ - DAYS BEFORE ECDYSIS FIGURE 6. Weight changes in single, normal, female Uca pugilator before ecdysis. bar indicates a period from 6 to 6 The black three, five, seven, and fourteen days, the mean percentage of calcium was found to be with a standard deviation of ±, values ranging from to These values are well within the range found for normal animals. While calcium is not stored in the hepatopancreas of U. pugilator to any appreciable extent (less than of the total dry weight in normal animals), one of the effects of bilateral eyestalk removal has been shown to be the complete depletion of calcium from the hepatopancreas within five days after the operation (Guyselman, 1950). Ash The ash, expressed as percentage of dry weight, was found to be with a standard deviation of ±, values ranging from to Again, the average value is not significantly different from that found for normal animals. That certain changes in the inorganic composition do occur following destalking will be shown by a comparison of the exuviae of destalked animals, cast at various times after destalking, with those of normal animals. Water The water contents of destalked animals, prior to ecdysis, can be treated only in an indirect manner. Wet weights were determined for five destalked animals.
