Marine invertebrate larval development
A. Indirect development (metamorphosis is involved) a. Planktotrophic development: e.g. mussel, oyster b. Lecithotrophic development: e.g. Babylonia snail c. Direct release from egg cases: e.g. some snails d. Within-parent direct development: some sea snails
B. Direct development: e.g. amphipod, octopus
Settlement and metamorphosis Gregarious settlement Other positive cues (e.g. food) Negative cues (e.g. predator) Passive entrainment Identified chemical cues: proteins, neurotransmitters, polypeptides, polysacchrides, oligopeptides, free fatty acids etc.Application: aquaculture and prevention biofouling.
