    Size at Maturity in the Male Crab Scylla serrata as Determined by Chela Allometry and Gonad Condition
    (Society of Fisheries Technologists (India) Cochin, 1990) PRASAD, P. N; NEELAKANTAN, B
    Sexual maturity in the male mud crab, Scylla serraza attains at the size range 81-90 mm carapace width (CW). At 97 mm CW 50% of males are mature. Highly significant (P < 0.00l) relationships are obtained between chela allometry and carapace measurements. About 34% of male crabs harvested commercially from the Karwar area during December, 1984 and November, 1985 were immature.
