Ranina ranina larvae were reared at 29 ~ from hatching to the megalopa stage to measure daily changes in body weight, water content and elemental composition. Energy, estimated from carbon content, was also examined. The water content was 85 to 92% of body weight immediately after ecdysis but decrea
No differences in development time and mortality were detected between starved and fed laboratory raised megalopa of Pagurus bernhardus. The average time of development in 138 megalopa was determined as 7.3 -+ 0.1 (95% CI) days. During megalopa development P. bernhardus loses about 7% in dry weight
