Studies of the Plymouth Brachyura. II. The Larval Stages of Ebalia and Pinnotheres

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  11 May 2009

Naturalist at the Plymouth Laboratory.

Extract

Further study of the larval crabs of the Plymouth district has resulted in the elucidation of many more life-histories. Amongst these perhaps some of the most interesting are Ebalia and Pinnotheres. These genera, placed by systematists in widely different groups, resemble one another closely in many details in their larval stages and are here purposely described together in order that a comparison may be made.
