The influence of density on survival and larval development in the sea urchin Arbacia dufresnii (Echinodermata: Echinoidea)

Introduction: Density is one of the critical factors in echinoderm larvae for aquaculture purposes. Echinoplutei larvae are very sensitive to overcrowding. High culture density can lead to problems with bacteria or protozoa, decreasing survival and generating abnormal morphotypes. Objective: To eval...
