Larval development of Micippa platipes Ruppell, 1930, reared under laboratory conditions (Crustacea, Decapoda, Majidae)
The ovigerous female of Micippa platipes Ruppell, 1830, captured from Buleji (Karachi, Pakistan) on February 7, 1993 and was kept under the laboratory conditions. On February 27, 1993 larvae were hatched in prezoeal stage. The presoeal stage of M. platipes passed through two zoeal stages within three to five days at room temperature (17-20C). The larvae are described, illustrated and compared with the larval account of Micippa thalia (Herbst, 1803) given by Kurata, 1969.
