Description It has been a well-known fact that the crustaceans are able to re-grow their limbs and regenerate muscle fibers. In our experiment, about a third of the lost gill lamellae was observed to be regenerated on the 50th day and a, half on the 75th day. The total regeneration of the gill lamellae was observed on the day 125th.
