H. Sekiguchi et al., PHYLLOSOMA LARVA OF PUERULUS-ANGULATUS (BATE, 1888) (DECAPODA, PALINURIDAE) FROM TONGAN WATERS, New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, 30(3), 1996, pp. 407-411
We describe from surface waters near Tonga a subfinal or final stage p
hyllosoma larva with a circular cepahalon which we refer to Puerulus a
ngulatus (Bate, 1888). It is the largest and most advanced larva of Pu
erulus yet described, and is only the second larva from the South Paci
fic Ocean for this genus.
