8428 Hemimysis anomala Other Ecological Benefits Observational Field In some lakes, crustacean introductions similar to Hemimysis anmala, such as mysid (Mysis spp.), have preceded the increased growth of salmonids. In contrast, in other lakes, they are associated with rapid declines in abundance and productivity of pelagic fishes. 16411
8429 Hemimysis anomala Other Ecological Benefits Experimental Laboratory Stable isotope analysis suggests that Hemimysis anomala (bloody red shrimp) may be replacing zooplankton in the diet of young yellow perch. It appears that as H. anomala density increases, this species plays a more substantial role in supporting higher trophic levels. 24659
