Life history of Nippoleucon hinumensis (Crustacea: Cumacea: Leuconidae) in Seto Inland Sea of Japan. I. Summer diapause and molt cycle

Abstract: The life history of the cumacean Nippoleucon hinumensis was investigated in the Seto Inland Sea of Japan from August 1998 to February 2002. The population produced 1 generation per year and recruitment of offspring occurred in April. The post-marsupial period consisted of 8 instars in males and 9 (plus generally 2 repeated instars) in females. Post-marsupial development up to the 4th instar (2nd juvenile stage) was characterized by periodic molting at intervals of 10 d, slow growth rate, and suppression of sex… Show more

“…The specimens described in the present paper and in Akiyama & Yamamoto (2004) were sorted from the same sediment samples. Because of the scarcity of specimens of the non-diapausing subpopulation, sediment samples were gathered twice or thrice a week and at least 3 sediment samples were obtained on each sampling day from December 2000 to April 2001.…”

“…Fecundity and intramarsupial stages were assessed by direct observation of the individuals removed from the marsupium. The intramarsupial stage was identical with that in Akiyama & Yamamoto (2004). The postmarsupial stages were determined on the basis of the shape of the 4th and 5th pereopods and the uropod in males, and the shape of the pereopod, uropod and oostegite plus body size in females.…”
