Description Larvae of the Indian mackerel, Rastrelliger kanagurta (Cuvier) have been
identified by the author from the plankton of the south west coast of India and
the Laccadive Sea collected during the cruises of R. V. VARUNA. Prolarval
and postiarval sta-ges from the size 1.73 mm to 8.6 mm (T.L.) are described
from the graded series present in the collections to highlight the salient features
during the larval development. This account also represents the first descriptions
with illustrations of the mackerel larvae from the west coast of India.
