Hemos recogido y revisado aproximadamente 7000 ejemplares de a especie Procambarus clarkii y de todos ellos sólo uno era aparentmente hermafrodita. Este animal se examinó y sus gónadas se fijaron en solución Bouin durante dos horas. El lóbulo genital posterior presentaba en su zona proximal tejido ovárico alterado y en su zona distal acinos testiculares inactivos. Por ello, este anima puede considerarse como un caso de hermafroditismo auténtico en esta especie
Approximately 7.000 specimens of the crayfish Procambarus clarkii from the Albufera lake (Valencia, Spain) were collected and examined, and only one apparent hermaphrodite animal was localized. This animal was studied and its gonads were fixed in Bouin's solution for 2 hours. The posterior genital lobe presented in its proximal zone and altered ovarian tissue and its distal zone the tecticular acini found were inactive. This observation constitute a real description of a case of autentic hermaphroditism in this specie
