- Abstract
New observations are presented on the distribution of Palaemon elegans Rathke, 1837 in the Gulf of Finland and in the Archipelago Sea. P. elegans has spread and become established in the north-eastern Baltic Sea. Ovigerous females and juveniles were found, indicating that P. elegans reproduces in this area. The species was recorded, sometimes in high densities, along the southern coast of Finland between Naantali and Loviisa. Information on the distribution of P. elegans along the Estonian coast is also included.
