Scale lines equal mm. survival to glaucothoe. In Figure 1, the per cent survival of the first and second zoeal stages is graphed for every 48 hour period. In both series there was a high mortality in the first zoeal stage, particularly during the first four days after hatching. A second high mortality occurred before the glaucothoe; in fact, a number of zoeae actually died in the process of molting to

In both series there was a high mortality in the first zoeal stage, particularly during the first four days after hatching. A second high mortality occurred before the glaucothoe; in fact, a number of zoeae actually died in the process of molting to this stage. These two periods seem to be the most critical in the larval development. It is probable that there are critical temperature, salinity or other physiological requirements at this time (Costlow, Bookhout and Monroe, I960). Measurements of the carapace, rostrum, posterior spines and ratio of the rostral to the posterior spines for the two zoeal stages of P. pubescens and P. rndis are presented in Table I. There is no significant difference in size between the.
