Description Complete larval history of Caridina longirostris was studied by rearing them under controlled conditions. Eight distinct zoeal stages and one intermediate stage were distinguished during the development from first zoea to first post-larva, which required a minimum of 15 days
duration. First post-larvae were reared for 173 days, by which time, majority of them had developed to adult stage. A brief description on the major transformations of the appendages during the development of first postlarva to adult stage is also provided. The salinity of the
rearing medium varied from 6 to 10%0 and ambient temperature from 23 to 28OC.
