Description The development of artificially fertilised eggs of the rock oyster,
Saccostrea cucullata (von Born) was studied in the laboratory. The
morphological and behavioural characteristics of the developing larvae
were observed. A mixed diet of single celled algae consisting of Isochrysis
galbana and Tetraselmis gracilis was fed to the larvae. The larval
developmental stages observed include trochophore, D-veliger, late
veliger, umbone stage, pediveJiger and plantigrade.
