4. THE LARVAE

Major orgonisotlon of tharox
M a p orgonisurion of obdornen
other shallow water species for which fairly detailed information is
available. Sheard's schematic representation of the development of
Nyctipphanes australis is reproduced in Pig. 48 because it illustrates most
of the important points in the development of these stages. The analysis

I
is based on a sample of 36 720 animals and the form of the next larva
was apparent under the integument of the larva so t'hst detailed
information on the actual sequences of development is presented. In
Pig. 48, the notation 8, N denotes the numbers of setose and nonI
FIa. 48. Developmental sequences in Nyctiphanes australis. The lengths of the blocks
correspond to ranges in total length of the different larvae; the numbers of each
type of larva are indicated.
