Larvae of Rhithropanopeus harrisii (Gould) were reared from hatching to the first or second crab stages in 11 combinations of salinities and cyclic temperatures (5, 20, and 35~ S at 20 ~ to 25oc, 250 to 3OOC, and 30o to 35oc; 25~ S at 20 ~ to 25oc and 30 ~ to 35oc). The larvae survived to the megalo
