Metabolism and chemical composition of phyllosoma larvae,with special reference to the tropical rock lobster Panulirus ornatus (Decapoda; Palinuridae)
Rates of oxygen consumption and ammonia excretion and chemical composition (water, ash and CNcomposition) were determined throughout larval development, from Stages IIX, of Panulirus ornatusphyllosoma larvae raised in the laboratory. Dry mass (DM) specific oxygen consumption rates varied from 1.4to...

Rates of oxygen consumption and ammonia excretion and chemical composition (water, ash and CNcomposition) were determined throughout larval development, from Stages IIX, of Panulirus ornatusphyllosoma larvae raised in the laboratory. Dry mass (DM) specific oxygen consumption rates varied from 1.4to 3.3 l O2 (DM)−1 h−1, showing a pattern of developmental decline. In contrast, specific ammonia excretionrates fluctuated irregularly from 0.02 to 0.067 g NH4N (DM)−1 h−1, yielding oxygen consumption toammonia excretion ratios (O:N atomic ratio) as wide as 51180. With progressive development, ashdecreased from 34% to 17% of DM while C composition increased from 33% to 41% of DM. No consistentchanging pattern with development was seen for water contents (7483% of WM), N composition (6.99.5%of DM) and C:N ratios (4.05.1).
