· Limnol. Oceanogr.; (United States)
A direct positive relationship was demonstrated between egg size and naupliar size in the calanoid copepod Diaptomus clavipes Schacht. Number of eggs per clutch and total clutch volume were inversely associated with measures of egg and naupliar size (egg volume, maximum egg length, naupliar volume, and maximum naupliar length). Thus, small clutches with large eggs give rise to large nauplii.
