Material examined
JAPAN – Okinawa, Sesoko I. , laboratory pier, 26°38ʹ09.4ʺ N, 127°51ʹ55.2ʺ E • 4 LSN; 1991–2005 ( Tables 1 and S1 View Table 1 ). GoogleMaps
Description
LAST-STAGE NAUPLIUS (LSN). Lecithotrophic. Body narrowly ovate in dorso-ventral view; about 1.7 times as long as wide; lateral margins tapering gradually towards caudal end with slight discontinuity at posterior end of cephalic shield. No lateral view available, but longitudinal axes of cephalon, trunk and dorso-caudal spine apparently nearly in same plane. Length 320–350 µm (ventral view of mounted exuviae, without dorso-caudal spine), greatest width ca 190 µm, greatest dorso-ventral thickness unknown but body apparently rather flattened. Labrum produced as trapezoidal elevation divided into facets by cuticular ridges; pores not examined in detail. Trunk with rows of 5 µm long spines along margins. Caudal end attenuate, terminating in ca 50 µm long dorso-caudal spine accompanied ventrally and farther forwards by pair of triangular, pointed furcal spines ca 5 µm long. Dorso-caudal spine broad-based but sharply pointed, with irregularly ridged proximal portion bearing a few spinules.
CYPRID VIEWED THROUGH CUTICLE OF LSN. No live specimens studied.
Identification and variation
Recognizable by its general shape and by its significantly smaller size compared to the otherwise similar Type Y (see above).
Distribution
Japan (Sesoko Island, Okinawa).
