Description First morphological description of an early stage paralarva of the
sharpear enope squid Ancistrocheirus lesueurii from southeastern
Arabian Sea is presented. The paralarva was collected at dusk by
using surface tows of zooplankton nets in February 2012. The
presence of paralarva A. lesueurii indicates that this species
completes its life cycle in this sea. A comparison of the arm
formula of paralarva and adult stages shows a major change in
the formula during metamorphosis to adult.
