Literature listed under the following higher taxa may also be relevant to CRUSTACEA (crustaceans):

BioImagesBioImages (www.bioimages.org.uk) has 1,498 images of CRUSTACEA (crustaceans)

Best killed in hot water for the smaller species, or by freezing for the larger ones.

Hand hot is sufficient to quickly kill marine shrimps etc.

For narcotisation, use Menthol or Lidocaine (eg Covonia Throat Spray).
