Six morphometric traits were measured and the degrees of morphological variations among wild Anthocidaris crassispina groups were compared using four multivariate analyses, one-way ANOVA analysis, variation coefficient method, cluster analysis and discriminant analysis. The results of one-way ANOVA analysis showed that there were significant differences in the six morphometric traits between Weizhou Island＇s population and the other five groups. The variation coefficient analysis showed that the difference between the Weizhou Island＇s population and Hailing Is- land＇s population reached the interspecific level. The results of cluster analysis showed that the morphometric characters of Daly Bay＇s population, Egong Bay＇s population and Nan＇ao＇s population were more similar, but the groups from Weizhou Island and Ningde City were the most divergent. The discriminant analysis showed that the identification accuracy of A. crassispina was 47.8%-86%, and the total dis- criminant accuracy was 65.3%. All the analysis results above suggest that certain morphological variation has been generated among A. crassispina groups from differ- ent origins due to geographical isolation and different environmental factors.展开更多

[Method] Simulation ex- periments were carried out in the laboratory to study the effects of A. crassispina enhancement on the behaviors of wild shrimps and crabs. [Result] Penaeus japoni- cus, Penaeus monodon and Metapenaeus affinis could coexist with A. crassispina, and A. crassispina had a certain attraction to Penaeus japonicus, but no harm oc- curred. There were neither behavioral effects nor hazards between Portunus san- guinolentus and A. crassispina. Portunus trituberculatus and Charybdis feriatus might cause some harm to A. crassispina when their quantity was large, but it was not a common phenomenon. [Conclusion[ This research provided references for the bio- logical behavioristics and the further development of ecological risk assessment of A. crassispina enhancement.展开更多

The results showed that A. cras- sispina exhibited an obvious preference on five different seaweeds, with the preference order of Betaphycus gelatinum 〉 Sargassum hemiphyllum 〉 Gelidium amansii 〉 Ulva lactuca 〉 Codium fragile. The daily feed intake of A. crassispina differed among U. lactuca, S. hemiphyllum and B. gelatinum. The feeding was affected by water temperature, seaweed species and body weight. The optimal vitality and feed intake were observed under 23 -27℃, which were inhibited under whether too higher or too lower temperature. Under the optimal temperature for feeding, the daily feed intake of adult A. crassispina assumed an exponentially-decreasing trend with increase of body weight.展开更多
