Palaemon is a genus of caridean shrimp in the family Palaemonidae. [2] Some species, including Palaemon macrodactylus and Palaemon orientis, can inhabit fish ponds where they compete with fish for food and can therefore be considered pests. [3] The following species are recognised in the genus Palaemon: [2]

Palaemon is a genus of shrimp that is found in rivers, lakes and ponds. They are small aquatic crustaceans that have an exoskeleton and ten legs. Read this article for basic characteristics, classification and a well-labelled diagram of the species.

Palaemon is a genus of caridean shrimp of the family Palaemonidae. The conventional circumscription of the genus Palaemon is probably paraphyletic. Molecular data suggest that Palaemonetes, as well as the genera Exopalaemon and Couteriella, are nested within Palaemon.

2020年8月18日 · We provide the largest and the first time-calibrated mitogenome phylogeny of the genus Palaemon and mitogenome substitution rate was estimated (1.59% per million years) in Decapoda for the first time. Our results highlighted the need for future systematics changes in Palaemon and crypticism in P. elegans was confirmed.
