Material examined
JAPAN – Okinawa, Sesoko I. , laboratory pier, 26°38ʹ09.4ʺ N, 127°51ʹ55.2ʺ E • 2 LSN; 1991–2005 ( Tables 1 and S1 View Table 1 ). GoogleMaps
Description
LAST-STAGE NAUPLIUS (LSN). Lecithotrophic. Body spoon-shaped in dorso-ventral view; about twice as long as wide; cephalic shield broadly rounded, with sharp discontinuity in body outline leading into trunk. In lateral view, trunk axis bent downwards ca 40° with respect to cephalic axis. Length 400 µm (ventral view of mounted exuvia, without dorso-caudal spine), greatest width ca 210 µm, dorso-ventral thickness ca 120 µm. Labrum with goblet-shaped outline in ventral view, its free posterior margin extending into large medial spine (‘stem’ of ‘goblet’), preceded by four small spines on labral midline; labral surface divided into facets by cuticular ridges. Trunk dorsum with four longitudinal rows of spines. Caudal end attenuate, terminating in 100 µm long, robust dorso-caudal spine armed with many smaller spines and accompanied ventrally at base by pair of small, ca 5 µm long furcal spines; long axis of dorso-caudal spine upturned 15° with respect to trunk axis.
CYPRID VIEWED THROUGH CUTICLE OF LSN. No live specimens examined.
Identification and variation
Easily recognizable by its labrum with the posterior margin extended into a large, eagle-beak-like median spine preceded by ca four small spines on the midline; also distinguished by the four dorsal rows of longitudinal spines on the trunk and the very long, robust and distinctly spinose dorso-caudal spine.
Distribution
Japan (Sesoko Island, Okinawa).
