Abstract:
The complete larval development of the porcellanid crab Neopisosoma negluctum Werding, 1986, was studied under laboratory conditions. At 27-degrees-C, the megalopa appeared after 9 days. The development consists of a transitory prezoea, two zoeal stages and a megalopa stage. The larvae exhibit telsonal features which places them in the Petrolisthes-group of porcellanid larvae. Larval morphology gives no additional support for the status of Neopisosoma as an independent genus.
