Life Cycle Strategy

Egg development time and hatching success were determined for the oncaeid copepod, Triconia canadensis, from the mesopelagic zone of the western subarctic Pacific. The egg development time was estimated to be 74.7–84.5 days at in situ temperature (3°C), which is much longer than those reported previously on the other oncaeid copepods even if the differences in experimental temperatures are taken into account. The egg hatching success varied between 50 and 100%, with a grand mean of 88%. The newly hatched nauplii of T. canadensis were elongate ellipsoid in shape, and had many large-sized lipid droplets in their body. Possible adaptive significance of apparent longer egg developmment time of T. canadensis is discussed in the light of their life cycle strategy.

We measured ingestion rate (IR), egg production rate (EPR) and egg hatching success (EHS) at increasing prey concentrations and calculated egg production efficiency (EPE) and maintenance rate (MR) in the estuarine copepod Acartia tonsa fed three different algal diets. EPR and EHS were relatively more affected by prey species than by prey concentration. EPEs were constant among carbon concentrations (C) on a diet of Rhodomonas baltica (0.202 ± 0.055, mean ± SD) and Dunaliella tertiolecta (0.034 ± 0.015), but decreased significantly from 0.371 ± 0.062 (mean of two lowest prey concentrations) to 0.200 ± 0.019 at the highest concentration of Thalassiosira weissflogii. In general it seems that other requirements than C demand limit EPE and EHS in A. tonsa. The MR (IR when EPR = 0) was significantly higher on D. tertiolecta, which also yielded the lowest EPEs, and it seems that variations in maintenance requirements may have been instrumental in evoking EPE variations as well.
