| Abstract |
Ovigerous crab of Zehntneriana amakusae of Rhizopinae in Pilumnidae was collected from Munseom Islet, Seogwipo, Jeju Is. and the first zoeas were obtained from hatched materials in the laboratory. The morphology of the first zoea of Z. amakusae is reported for the first time in the world with a color digital photo. The first zoea of Z. amakusae has common zoeal characteristics in the spines of carapace and the satations of maxillule, maxilla, and the first maxilliped of Korean Pilumnids. However, the first zoea of Z. amakusae is different from other species of Korean Pilumnids in that it has 1, 1, 5 satae on endopod of the second maxilliped and two lateral spines and one dorsal spine on fork of telson. |
