Although particular larval traits of C. africana remain undocumented, given that a number of localities from which this species was collected are land locked (Table 1; Fig. 4), it is clear that reproductive plasticity occurs in this species. Riverine populations may have retained an amphidromous life-history strategy, perhaps with a lower number of zoeal stages and / or lower salinity tolerance. Land-locked populations, in contrast, must have adapted this reproductive strategy to complete their life cycle in freshwater. Intraspecific variable reproductive strategies in relationship to the distance away from the coast or to the population being land locked have been documented in a number of freshwater Palaemonidae. For example, in the widely distributed South American species Macrobrachium amazonicum (Heller, 1862), geographically delineated variation in life-history traits, from coastal amphidromous populations to far-inland populations, has been demonstrated (Vergamini et al., 2011; Hayd & Anger, 2013). However, such intraspecific variation in life-history strategy has not yet been reliably documented within Atyidae.	en	Wood, Louisa E, de Grave, Sammy, Daniels, Savel R (2019): A comparative evolutionary study reveals radically different scales of genetic structuring within two atyid shrimp species (Crustacea: Decapoda: Atyidae).
