ABSTRACT
Morphometric analysis
was carried out to find out changes in the growth pattern of male and female
stomatopod, Harpiosquilla raphidea. Six
morphometric relationships were examined on 105 males and 105 females, ranging
in size from 103 to 207 mm and from 104 to 222 mm in total length,
respectively. In both the sexes, the relative growth of carapace length,
propodus length of raptorial claw and total weight in relation to total length
was found positively allometric. Telson width in both the sexes and abdomen
width in males showed slightly negative allometry, while the abdomen width of
females showed slightly positive allometry, indicating some variation in the
growth between sexes which could be attributed to the energy requirement for
maturation in females. The propodus of females was also found to be bigger than
that of males. It is quite interesting as males only have larger chela in other
crustaceans. It has a functional significance in that it is of immense help at
the time of intense feeding during maturation of oocytes which requires higher
energy.

ABSTRAK
Analisis morfometrik
telah dijalankan untuk mengetahui perubahan dalam pola pertumbuhan stomatopod
jantan dan betina, Harpiosquilla raphidea.
Enam hubungan morfometrik dijalankan pada 105 jantan dan 105 betina, masing
masing bersaiz 103 ke 207 mm dan daripada 104 ke 222 mm jumlah panjang. Dalam
kedua-dua jantina, pertumbuhan relatif panjang karapas, panjang propodus
berkuku raptorial dan jumlah berat berkaitan dengan jumlah panjang didapati
positif alometri. Lebar telson kedua-dua jantina dan lebar abdomen pada jantan
menunjukkan alometri yang sedikit negatif, manakala lebar badan betina
menunjukkan sedikit alometri positif yang memperlihatkan beberapa perbezaan
pertumbuhan antara jantina yang mungkin disebabkan oleh keperluan tenaga
kematangan oleh betina. Propodus betina juga didapati lebih besar daripada
jantan. Ia adalah agak menarik kerana hanya jantan mempunyai kela yang lebih
besar untuk krustasea lain. Ia mempunyai kepentingan bererti dan dapat membantu
semasa makan yang memerlukan tenaga yang lebih tinggi sewaktu kematangan
oocytes.
