Crustacean larva - Wikipedia
The nauplius stage (plural: nauplii) is characterised by consisting of only three head segments, which are covered by a single carapace. The posterior body, when present, is unsegmented. Each head segment has a pair of appendages; the antennules, antennae, and mandibles.
Nauplii Larvae - Shape of Life
2018年5月16日 · The nauplii of different species all look alike so they are hard to tell apart. These larvae live in the water column as part of the zooplankton. They’re stealthy little creatures in that they blend in with many zooplankton.
Key for the identification of crustacean nauplii - ScienceDirect
2006年2月9日 · The nauplius is the earliest free-living stage in the development of most crustaceans, except in the majority of the Malacostraca. Several character states of the nauplius larva are used as constitutive for the Crustacea as a whole.
Nauplii - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
Nauplii are the most vulnerable stage of the copepod life cycle. Size-selective predation by omnivorous zooplankters has been deemed as the main biotic factor of naupliar mortality, which is always higher than copepodid mortality.
Nauplii - Evergreen State College
A nauplius (plural nauplii) is the first larva of animals, classified as crustaceans. Nauplius larvae belong to the phylum Arthropod. It body consists of a thorax and abdomen, head and telson* 1. This organism has a single, median eye at the front of its head.
Nauplii
2016年5月19日 · Nauplii is a stage in the life cycle of organisms that belong in the kingdom Animalia, phylum Anthropoda, and Subphylum Crustacea. Nauplii are the first stage in crustacean larvae. Crustacean’s like crabs, barnacles, shrimp, and krill fertilize eggs. If successful, these fertilized eggs of these crustaceans first grow to become nauplii.

Nauplii are translucent under the microscope with splotches of red/orange visible within their bodies. The dot in the middle of the head is referred to as the “naupliar” eye.
Invertebrate Embryology: Identifying crustacean nauplii
2012年5月28日 · Nauplii are characterized by having three pairs of appendages: a pair of uniramous (not forked) antennules, and a pair of antennae and manidibles, both of which are biramous (i.e. forked). Nauplii are some of the most common organisms one encounters while sorting plankton samples.
Nauplius | zoology | Britannica
In crustaceans the larva, called nauplius, does not differ substantially in mode of life or means of locomotion from the adult but has fewer appendages than the adult. A typical crustacean nauplius has three pairs of legs and an unpaired simple eye. Additional pairs of appendages and paired compound eyes…
