“…Probably, this shape of the telson characterizes the larvae of genera Axiopsis and Boasaxius. At the same time, a fan-shaped telson bearing a single long central, two long lateral spines and 14-16 marginal setae and additionally the absence of uropods till megalopa are probably generic larval characters of Axius (Gurney 1942;Barnich 1996;Pohle et al 2011). A fan-shape telson with numerous plumose setae (17 on either side or even more) characterizes the larvae of the genus Calocaris (Gurney 1942) and possibly Calocarides (Elofsson 1959).…”

“…Axiid larvae are very poorly known (Pohle et al 2011). Partial descriptions based on laboratory-reared and plankton-collected material exist for two species from the east Atlantic: Axius stirhynchus and Calocaris macandreae (Gurney 1942;Barnich 1996).…”

“…Only the first zoea of Axiopsis serratifrons from Brazil has been obtained in the laboratory from an ovigerous female (Rodrigues 1994). The most detailed description of the complete larval development of Axius serratus from the northwest Atlantic was performed based on plankton-collected material (Pohle et al 2011). Among axiids found in the west Pacific, only the larvae of Axius sp.…”

The complete larval development of Boasaxius princeps (Boas, 1880) (Decapoda: Axiidea: Axiidae) is described and illustrated for the first time from material reared in the laboratory. The development includes eight zoeal stages and a single megalopal stage. At 20-22°C the first megalopa was attained 38 days after hatching. It is the first description of the larvae of a lobster shrimp with long development obtained under laboratory conditions. An identification key to zoeal stages of B. princeps is presented. Numerous characters show that zoeae of B. princeps are similar to the larvae of Axiopsis serratifrons. Thus, according to the overall similarities of the larval characters, Boasaxius and Axiopsis are closer to each other than other axiid genera.

Upogebia vasquezi inhabits the western Atlantic in the regions of southern Florida, the Bahamas, Central America and Brazil (from the States of Maranhão to São Paulo). Its occurrence has been extended to the coastal region of the State of Pará (northern Brazil). There are few descriptions of the larval development of the 116 known species of Upogebia. The present study offers the first description and illustrations of the first two larval stages (zoeas I and II) of U. vasquezi reared in laboratory. The larval features of U. vasquezi were compared with those of two other species of Upogebia, revealing very similar morphological characteristics among species in zoea I. The main variation in this larval stage was in the segmentation of the maxillulary endopod. In zoea II, the number of setae on the scaphognathite was different among some species of Upogebia. The present study contributes to the available literature on the identification of thalassinidean larvae.

Semilunar postlarval settlement periodicity ensuing from semilunar larval release cycle in the Nihonotrypaea harmandi (Crustacea, Decapoda, Axiidea, Callianassidae) population on an intertidal sandflat in an open marine coastal embayment

Many decapod crustaceans in marine intertidal habitats release larvae toward coastal oceans, from which postlarvae (decapodids: settling‐stage larvae) return home. Decapodid settlement processes are poorly understood. Previous studies showed that in Kyushu, Japan, the callianassid shrimp population on an intertidal sandflat of an open bay joining the coastal ocean near a large estuary released eight batches of larvae basically in a semilunar cycle from June through October and that decapodids performed diel vertical migration, occurring in the water column nocturnally. We conducted (a) frequent sampling for population density and size‐composition on the sandflat through one reproductive season, (b) planktonic and benthic sampling for decapodids around the bay mouth, and (c) current meter deployment at three points across the bay mouth for tidal harmonic analysis. On the sandflat, six batches of newly‐settled decapodids (settlers) occurred in a semilunar periodicity until October, with peaks occurring 0–3 days before syzygy dates except for the first one. For larval Batches 1–4, buoyancy‐driven shoreward subsurface currents during July to mid‐October would transport some pre‐decapodid‐stage larvae (zoeae) toward the bay. The absence of expected settler Batches 7–8 would be due to the converse subsurface currents caused by water‐column mixing and seasonal winds after mid‐October, carrying zoeae offshore. Once in the bay, phasing of night and nighttime‐averaged shoreward tidal current explained the settlement pattern for Batches 1–4. For Batches 5–6 occurring in mid‐September to mid‐October, water currents generated by seasonal wind and tidal forcings may have caused peak settlement after the time expected from tidally‐driven decapodid transport.
