The complete postembryonic development of nauplius stages of Paramphiascella vararensis T. Scotf (Copepoda: Harpacticoida) is described and illustrated based on specimens cultured in laboratory. The nauplii of P. vararensis feed on powder of a green algae, Ulva perusa. This species is metamorphosed to the stages of nauplius. Development from the nauplius stage to the nauplius stage take about 12 days under culture conditions of 33-34 ppt of salinity, 22-23$^{\circ}$C of temperature and feed on the algal powder. In the nauplius stages of P. vararensis, the rudiment of maxillule appeares at the third nauplius stage, and maxilla appeares at the fifth nauplius stage.

Chthamalus challengeri Hoek was collected from intertidal rocks to rear the larvae from hatching through nauplius to cyprid in the laboratory. Larval development consists of six nauplius stages and a cyprid. Unilobed labrum with a prominent protuberance and the frontolateral horns folded under the anterior cephalic shield margin are diagnostic features through all nauplius stages. The posterior border of the cephalic shield bears no posterior shield spines in nauplius stages IV-Ⅵ. There is a specific hispid seta in the fourth group of the antennal endopodite. Morphological features such as the cephalic shield, labrum, abdominal process, antennules, antennae and mandibles in all nauplius and cyprid stages are illustrated and described. The numerical setations of the antennule are found to aid in the intraspecific identification of barnacle nauplius stages without dissection. The keys to each stage of the barnacle larvae in Korean coastal waters are provided based on the reared nauplii of seven species: Pollicipes mitella Octomeris sulcata, Chthamalus challengeri, Balanus albicostatus B. trigonus, B. amphitrite, and B. improvisus inhabiting Korean coastal waters.

The productivity of cyclopoid copepod, Apocyclops royi fed by various diets (Isochrysis galbana, Tetraselmis suecica, Phaeodactylum tricornutum, concentrated freshwater Chlorella and baker's yeast) was investigated at tile different temperatures ($16-36^{\circ}C$) with different salinities (5-34 ppt). A. royi was cultured in 6 ml vessels (12 wells culture plate). Total production (188 inds.) and daily production (13.4 inds.) of nauplii by A. royi female at $32^{\circ}C$ were significantly higher than those of nauplii at the different temperatures (P<0.05). Development time from nauplii to copepodite and from nauplii to adult tended to increase with increasing water temperature up to 32. And total production (169 inds.) and daily production (9 inds.) of nauplii by A. royi female at 10 ppt were significantly higher than those of nauplii at the different salinities (P<0.05). The fastest development time from nauplii to copepodite and from nauplii to adult was observed at 10 ppt and 15 ppt, respectively (P<0.05). The highest total production of A. royi nauplii and fastest development time from nauplii to adult were obtained in females fed Isochrysis galbana (P<0.05). These results may indicate that the optimum culture temperature and salinity for A. royi are $32^{\circ}C$ and 10 ppt, respectively, and Isochrysis galbana is one of the suitable diets for this copepod.

Sessile barnacle, Balanus trigonus Darwin, was collected from the intertidal rocks and the external shells of bivalve Mylius coruscus. The nauplius and cyprid larvae were cultured in a constant temperature cabinet at a temperature of $20^{\circ}C$ and a light regime of 14 h light and 10 h darkness. Larval development includes the six nauplius stages and a cyprid stage prior to settlement and metamorphosis to the young adult. Morphological characteristics including antennules, antennae and mandibles are described and illustrated. All nauplius larvae have trilobed labra typical in balanoides. The developmental time taken from newly hatched nauplius I to cyprid was $9\~13$ days and averaged 11 days.

A series of experiments since 1963 ha sbeen made on the artificial propagation of Penaeus oriental is for the purpose of improving breeding of the prawn. The results are as follows: 1. Spawning takes place in the evening, and almost completes before 10 o'clock p. m.. Number of spawns deposited by a prawn is 30,000 to 150,000. 2. Deposited spawns become nauplius stage after approximately 18 hours (about 13 hours in hatching tanks) at water temperature of $23\~25^{\circ}C$, and grow to first nauplius stage in subsequent 28 hours. 3. It takes about five days from first nauplius stage to zoea stage, and additional four or five days from first zoea stage to first mysis stage. 4. It takes approximately 2 to 3 weeks from spawning to post larva. 5. Hatching rate ranged from $1.4\%$ to $14.9\%$, with the average of $6\%$ in 1966 and $10\%$ to $35\%$ averaging $20\%$ in 1967.

We studied the effect of food concentration on grazing, growth and fecundity of cyclopoid copepod Paracyclopina nana. Marine phytoplankton Tetraselmis suecica was used as a livefood for the copepod. Six stage compositions were used and food concentrations for the experiment were 0.5, 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 40, 60 and $80{\times}10^4$ cells/mL. Range of food concentrations with 0.2, 0.5, 1, 2, 3 and $4{\times}10^4$ cells/mL were used for nauplii production experiment. Grazing rates of P. nana in all developmental stages on the different concentrations were increased with increasing diet concentration. While the growth of nauplius was not affected by increase of food concentration, food concentration outside of $1{\times}10^4$ to $5{\times}10^4$ cells/mL range negatively affected that of copepodite. Daily nauplii production was increased with increasing food concentration but $3{\times}10^4$ and $4{\times}10^4$ cells/mL treatments were not significantly different with $2{\times}10^4$ cells/mL treatment. As a result, optimum concentration of T. suecica for mass culture of P. nana was considered to be 5,000 cells/mL for nauplius stage, 10,000 cells/mL for copepodite stage and adult male, 20,000 cells/mL for adult female, respectively.

본 연구는 부착규조류에 따른 부착성 요각류 Tigriopus japonicus의 nauplius 생산력을 알아보기 위하여 실시하였다. 실험에 사용된 T. japonicus는 부산 동백섬 부경대학교 수산과학연구소 부근에 있는 tidal pool에서 동물성부유생물망으로 채집하였다. 먹이생물로는 부경대학교 한국해양 미세조류 은행에서 보관중인 부착규조류 중 중형종인 Caloneis schroder를 대표종으로 이와 크기가(14.8~27.5$\mu\textrm{m}$) 유사한 종들을 대상으로 형태를 현미경 하에서 관찰하고, 지역과 분리일자 등을 고려하여 유사종을 선별한 후 최종적으로 종의 유전적 유사성을 밝히기 위하여 RAPD-PCR (random amplified polymorphic DNA polymerase chain reaction)을 실시하였다. 이 중 Caloneis schroder와 유전적으로 유사성이 낮은 Navicula spp. (KMCC B-245, 393, 394, 581) 4종을 선별하여 T. japonicus의 먹이로 사용하여 포란한 암컷의 nauplius 생산력을 3반복 조사하였다. Genomic DNA는 대부분의 종에서 성공적으로 검출되었으며, 종에 따라 PCR 증폭산물이 나타나지 않은 경우도 있었으므로, PCR 산물이 나타난 종에 대해서만 분석하였고, 증폭된 DNA band는 대부분 크기 0.5~2.0kb 범위에서 나타났다. 실험에 사용된 부착규조류 간의 유사성을 알아보기 위하여 similarity matrix를 분석한 결과 F값의 범위는 0.00에서 1.00까지 였으며, Caloneis schroder와 유사성이 낮은 종들에 비하여 유사성이 높은 종들이 더 많이 나타났다. 이들을 먹이로 하여 포란한 T. japonicus의 실험구별 nauplius 평균 개체수를 살펴보면, KMCC B-394가 255.7마리로 가장 높았던 반면 KMCC B-581가 29.7마리로 가장 낮았다. 그 외 KMCC B-245가 120.0마리, KMCC B-393가 76.0마리, Caloneis schroder가 32.3마리 각각 나타났다. 이와같은 결과를 볼 때 T. japonicus의 nauplius 생산력은 규조 종에 따라 큰 차이가 있는 것으로 판단된다.

To investigate the food organisms and feeding selectivity of slimy (Leiognathus nuchalis) during the postlarval stage, the gut contents of the fish, captured in Kwangrang Bay in 1995, were observed. The food organisms in the gut were composed of copepod egg and nauplius, Tintinnopsis spp. and Codonellopsis sp. The indices of relative importance (IRI) indicated that Tintinnopsis spp. was the most dominant food item ($80.6\%$), and copepod nauplius was the next ($18.5\%$). Tintinnopsis spp. was the most favorite food item: it occupied $73.8\%$ of gut contents, though it did $39.2\%$ of microzooplankton in the surrounded water. The composition of copepod nauplius was higher in the larvae shorter than 2.0 mm NL. As slimy larvae grew, the size of food organisms in the gut was not changed, and their number increased, and the selectivity for food items increased.

Larval development of Chirona cristatus Ren and Riu, 1978, found in the low part of rocks in the intertidal clone or the shell of scallops, was described in detail and compared with those of other known barnacles. Durations from nauplius through cyprid to pinhead stage are three weeks at 20$\pm$0.5$^{\circ}C$. Trilobed labrum bearing three groups of slender hairs and frontolateral horns folded under the anterior cephalic shield margin are diagnostic features through all nauplius stages. The posterior border of the cephalic shield bears a pair of cephalic shield spines in nauplius stages IV,V and Ⅵ. There is no specific hispid sets at the fourth group of the antennal endpodite. The dorsal thoracic spine, abdominal process and posterior shield spine haute numerous small spines Morphological features such as the cephalic shield, labrum, abdominal process, antennules, antennae and mandibles in all nauplius and cyprid stages are illustrated and described. The numerical setations of antennule in this species are found to be practically helpful for intraspecific identification of barnacle nauplius stages without dissection.
