Maximum activity was at night and during the new moon. Rainfall seemed to be associated with increased movement. Salinities near 15% appeared to act as a barrier to movement of this species into the Galveston Bay system.freshwater shrimpMacrobrachium ohionemigrationstemporal distributionbiotic barriersbiogeographytaxonomyNotes on the river shrimp, Macrobrachium ohione (Smith) 1874, in the Galveston Bay system of Texas.Article
