Specific Characters Grouped in to differnt taxa

a. Join Footed Animal Hence the specimen Belongs to the phylum:Arthropoda
b. 5 segment of head fused so the specimen belongs to the class : Crustacea
c. Tall walking legs so the specimen belongs to order : Dcapoda
d. Last two pairs walking legs are cephalopode so the specimen belongs to the Family : Penadeae
e. Teeth on upper side only so hence the specimen belongs to the Genus : Metapenaeus
f. Rsotral formula p/v 8/0 So this Species: M. Monocerus

Classification

Phylum: Arthopoda
Class : Crustacea
Order: Decapoda
Family : peaedea
Sub family : peaenae
Genus : Metapenaeus
Species :M. monocerros

Conclusion

on the basis of external characters monophometric characters meristric characters and finally specific characters grouped into different taxa the speciment is Metapenaeus monoceros
