Abstrak: Kecepatan perkembangan embrio Chelonia mydas dipengaruhi oleh suhu inkubasi. Embrio yang diinkubasi pada suhu 31±1°C (SF)  mencapai tahap 17 pada umur inkubasi 22-23 hari, tahap 19 pada umur inkubasi 26 hari, dan tahap 22 pada umur inkubasi 31 hari. Embrio yang diinkubasi pada suhu 26±1°C (SM)  mencapai tahap tahap 17 pada umur inkubasi 39-40 hari, tahap 19 pada umur inkubasi. 45 hari, dan tahap 22 pada umur inkubasi 52-53 hari. Hasil pengamatan terhadap struktur histologis gonad embrio menunjukkan bahwa gonad embrio tahap 17, 19, dan tahap 22 telah berupa gonad indiferen. Gonad-gonad pada tahap tersebut sudah dapat dibedakan menjadi bagian korteks dan bagian medula. Bagian korteks berupa epitel selapis silindris, sedangkan bagian medula mengandung jaringan ikat dan kelompok-kelompok sel. Bakal sel kelamin ditemukan pada bagian medula dan korteks. Dengan demikian dapat disimpulkan bahwa periode TSP Chelonia mydas yang diinkubasi pada suhu 31±1°C (SF)   terentang dari umur inkubasi 22 hari hingga umur inkubasi 31 hari, sedangkan periode TSP Chelonia mydas yang diinkubasi pada suhu 26±1°C (SF)   terentang dari umur inkubasi 39 hari hingga umur inkubasi 53 hari.Kata kunci: Chelonia mydas, TSP, umur inkubasi, suhu feminisasi, suhu maskulinisasi Abstract: Embryonic development Rate of Chelonia mydas is affected by incubation temperature . The embryos were incubated at 31 ± 1°C ( FT ) reached embryonic stage of 17th at 22-23rd of incubation day, embryonic stage of 19th at 26th of incubation day, and embryonic stage of 22nd at 31st of incubation day. The embryos were incubated at 26 ± 1°C ( MT ) reached embryonic stage 17 th at 39-40th incubation day , embryonic stage 19 th at 45 th day of incubation , and embryonic stage 22nd at 52-53 rd incubation day. Observations on the histological structure of the gonadal embryos showed that the embryonic gonad stages 17th , 19th , and 22nd have been in indifferent stage. Gonads at this stage can be distinguished  in two parts, cortex and medulla. Cortex as a layer of cylindrical epithelium, while the medulla consist of connective tissue and  groups of cell. Primordial Germ Cells are found both in medulla and cortex . It can be concluded that the TSP of Chelonia mydas were incubated at 31 ± 1°C ( FT ) extended from 22nd of  incubation day until the 31st of incubation day , whereas the TSP of Chelonia mydas were incubated at 26 ± 1°C (MT) extended from 39th of  incubation day until the 53rd of incubation day.Key words: Chelonia mydas, TSP, feminization temperature, maskulinization temperature

Abstract Domínguez-Petit, R., Ouellet, P., and Lambert, Y. 2013. Reproductive strategy, egg characteristics and embryonic development of Greenland halibut (Reinhardtius hippoglossoides). – ICES Journal of Marine Science, 70: 342–351. Despite the commercial importance of Greenland halibut (GH), important gaps exist in our knowledge of the reproductive and early life stage biology for this species. The present study examined through laboratory experiments the spawning strategy, realized fecundity, egg characteristics, biochemical composition, and embryonic development of GH. The results confirmed the hypothesis that GH is a single-batch spawner producing large eggs, resulting in low realized fecundity. Embryonic development and hatching time are highly dependent on incubation temperature; 50% hatching occurred after 46, 30, and 24 days at 2, 4, and 6°C, respectively. Few changes in the biochemical composition of the eggs are observed during embryonic development. Newly hatched larvae are not well developed, having a large yolk sac, no pigmentation and incomplete development of the jaws. Egg specific density confirmed the mesopelagic distribution of the eggs at sea. However, important buoyancy changes occurring in the last 3–4 days before hatching indicate that larvae hatch higher in the water column. These results are important for understanding advection and dispersion processes of GH eggs and larvae and the connectivity between spawning grounds and nursery areas.

Abstract Macrobrachium americanum has a high commercial value with good fishing and cultivation possibilities in Mexico. Currently there is little information on reproductive aspects so the present work analyzed the sex ratio, fecundity and morphometry of the eggs of M. americanum in the Petatlán River, Sinaloa, Mexico. A total of 31 ovigerous females were captured. The sex ratio was 0.39 F: 1 M. The partial fecundity (Pf) varied from 34, 554 to 342, 372 eggs (128, 246 ± 12, 306 eggs, average Pf). The relationships between body and length-fecundity (R2= 0.5546), cephalothorax and length-fecundity (R2= 0.4995) were adjusted to a linear model, and the total weight-fecundity to a potential model (R2= 0.5013). The average relative fecundity was 37, 132 ± 5, 162 eggs/g. A total of 7 stages of embryonic development were observed. In the first stages, the egg presents a spherical form and in the latter an ovoid shape. Maximum egg diameter values are presented in stages VII, VI and VIII. Stage II provided the largest number of eggs (1, 013, 073 eggs). It is essential to optimize the exploitation of the population of M. americanum present in the Petatlán River through the creation of scientific bases for the sustainability of the fishery.

Cantikgrouper is the hybridization results grouper or cross-breeding between Epinephelus fuscoguttatus as a female and Epinephelus microdon as a male. The main barriers faced in the development of this commodity is still low levels of spawning up to seeding grouper. Based on the background, this study aimed to investigate optimum temperature observations against the rate of embryonic development Epinephelus sp.larvae. This study used the results of artificial spawning eggs.The fertilized eggs were incubated on six pieces of the container temperature treatment;each treatment there was repeated three times.The incubation temperature was kept on (A) 21-22°C; (B) 23-24°C; (C) 25-26°C; (D) 27-28°C; (E) 29-30°C; (F) 31-32°C. Results showed that eggswere incubated at a temperature of 21-22 ℃ embryonic development to a halt in the blastula, and temperature 23-24°C stalled on phasemyomere embryos. The low-temperature incubation period lasts a long time. Temperature 25-26°C needed 18 hours 6 minutes by 8.33% abnormality rate. Temperature 27-28°C needed 16 hours to hatch witha degree of abnormality of 7.6%. Temperature 29-30°C needed 15 hours 1 minute for the hatch tothe degree of abnormality of 5.33%. The 31-32°C temperature needed 14 hours 6 minutes to hatch witha degree of abnormality of 17.3%. The limits of tolerance for the incubation of the eggs ofcantik grouper (Epinephelusspp.) were 26-32°C.The best temperature of each treatment were obtained at a temperature of 29-30°C. Based on our results, it concluded that the changing temperature affected how long eggs could hatch.

SummaryThe flameback pygmy angelfish Centropyge aurantonotus, highly appreciated and valued by the aquarium market, is heavily harvested and traded. Temperature is one of the abiotic factors that has the most influence on fish development, especially in the early stages of life. For captive production, it is essential to know the appropriate environmental parameters for each species. In this sense, this study aimed to evaluate the influence of temperature on the embryonic development and hatching rates of C. aurantonotus incubated at six different temperatures (20, 22, 24, 26, 28, 30°C). Embryonic development events were very similar in terms of morphological and chronological characteristics compared with other species of the genus Centropyge. Incubation time was inversely proportional to temperature. The treatment at 22°C required twice the time of that required by 30°C treatment for hatching to occur. The best incubation temperature range was 24–28°C. Values below 22°C and at 30°C showed lower hatching rates compared with other treatments. Based on these results, the recommended temperature at which to incubate C. aurantonotus eggs is between 24–28°C.
