TY - JOUR AU - Wycliffe, M. John AB - Abstract The oxygen consumption (routine rate) of Branchinella kugenumaensis, inhabiting tropical astatic ponds is measured at 28°C. Two distinct trends are observed in the oxygen consumption by this fairy shrimp; young, immature animals have a higher rate than the older, sexually mature animals. Branchinella kugenumaensis falls under the intermediate group of Bertalanffy, where respiration falls between the respiration surface proportional and the respiration weight proportional metabolism.
