palaemon adspersus

Palaemon adspersus is uncommon over most of north-western Europe, but forms the basis of a significant fishery in the Danish straits.

In the moats, Palaemon adspersus, Macrobrachium, Nukaebi (Paratya improvisa) and Procambarus clarkii were found, in many numbers except Macrobrachium.

Palaemon adspersus, commonly called Baltic prawn, is a species of shrimp that is frequent in the Baltic Sea, and is the subject of fisheries in Denmark.

Not all biologists followed the new nomenclature, and the confusion was eventually resolved by a ruling from the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN), which stated that the type species of Palaemon would be Palaemon adspersus.
