Length range 179-2-22 mm.; average length 1-90 mm. Carapace length ±0-97 mm. The carapace is a little longer than half the total length of the larva. At this stage a small but dis- tinct tooth appears on the inferior margin of the carapace toward its posterior end. The carapace covers the compound eyes which are now globular and distinctly 0-25mm 0-5mm Fig. 6. Nyctiphanes capensis. a, third calyptopis, latera

Nyctiphanes capensis. a, third calyptopis, lateral view; b, telson of same; c, third calyptopis, dorsal view. The outer, distal margin of the basal segment of the first antennal peduncle is produced as a strong, toothed spine which reaches to about the distal end of the third and last segment of the peduncle. The two rami of the first antennae remain unaltered. The second antennae and the other thoracic appendages are much the same as in the preceding Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Institute of Oceanographic Sciences (Great Britain); National Institute of Oceanography of Great Britain; Great Britain.
