The Larva of Pareledone Nigra Hoyle From South Africa

Notes on the European species of Eledone with special reference to eggs and larvae

“…1 The larva of a South African Eledonid, Pareledone nigra, has recently been described by me (see Rees, 1954) The spawning of Eledone cirrhosa in captivity was first noted by Joubin (1888) who observed it in an aquarium at Banyuls in the month of June. According to Joubin there were about 30 groups of eggs (and traces of another 30) most of them being eaten by the female.…”
