The complete larval development of Ibacus ciliatus from hatching to the nisto and juvenile stages using jellyfish as the sole diet

“…Various kinds of jellyfish are useful for the diet, including venomous species, such as the Portuguese man-of-war and box jellyfish (Wakabayashi et al, 2012a). Artemia and bivalves (mussel gonads and clam meat) have been considered the most suitable diet for phyllosoma culture of palinurid and scyllarid lobsters (Phillips and Matsuda, 2011;Murakami et al, 2011); nevertheless, Artemia usually bring with the bacterial contamination causing a diseases (Solangi et al, 1979;Tolomei et al, 2004) and bivalves bring with a labor to remove their shells. Jellyfish, especially non-harmful species such as moon jelly, is easy to handle for feeding.…”

“…Scyllarid lobster fisheries also support the global demands for lobsters even though the contribution is relatively small (Spanier and Lavalli, 2013). Commercial production of these lobsters is required to meet high demand; however, it has still not been implemented because techniques for lobster aquaculture have not yet been established (Phillips and Matsuda, 2011;Hall et al, 2013).…”

Palinurid lobster larval rearing for closed-cycle hatchery production

“…'Hold-and-fatten' facilities operated in Taiwan between 1985 and2001 (Long Diann Marine Bio Technology Co. Ltd.) sourcing P. ornatus from the Philippines. Similarly, ventures in the Philippines, Singapore, Cuba and India have boomed and then collapsed (Phillips and Matsuda, 2011). In Vietnam, puerulus and early stage juveniles, with an optimal size of 4-6 cm, are caught in the wild by divers or using collectors and traps, and subsequently grown out in captivity for various periods before being shipped to market.…”

“…Signifi cant advances have been made in completing the larval cycle under hatchery conditions for Palinurid lobsters. The larval culture requirements for spiny lobsters, including J. edwardsii, P. japonicus, P. ornatus and others, are currently under investigation (for review see Jones, 2009;Phillips and Matsuda 2011). Complete larval development to metamorphosis has been reported in at least eight species: P. japonicus, P. longipes, P. homarus, P. penicillatus, P. argus (Kittaka and Booth, 2000;Goldstein et al, 2008) J. edwardsii, Sagmariasus (Jasus) verreauxi (Kittaka et al, 1997) and P. ornatus (Smith et al, 2009b).…”

DNA identification of the phyllosoma diet ofJasus edwardsiiandScyllarussp. Z

“…Complete larval development of spiny lobsters in culture has been completed for more than eight species of spiny lobsters, including the red spiny lobster (Jasus edwardsii) which is found along the coast of southern parts of Australia and most of New Zealand (Kittaka 1994;Phillips & Matsuda 2011). The survival rate of lobsters in culture is still too low to be commercially viable, with the majority of mortalities being observed in the larval stages (Tong et al 1997;Jeffs & Hooker 2000;Phillips & Matsuda 2011). Nutrition is the most important factor responsible for the mortality of spiny lobster phyllosoma in culture (Nelson et al 2006;Jeffs 2007Jeffs , 2010.…”
