Notes on the Eggs and Larvæ of Some Plymouth Prosobranchs

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  11 May 2009

Extract

The following short descriptions of several of the eggs and larvæ of Plymouth prosobranchs, hitherto unknown or imperfectly known, are brought together, although many of them are not fully worked out. It is hoped in the near future to publish a general account of the British species with reference to all known forms, including those which have been specially described from Plymouth.

Some of those described below have not yet been identified, but it is thought that it is worth while noting them for the benefit of future workers, especially some striking forms, important in the plankton on account of their size. This is notably the case with the three larvæ probably belonging to the Turridæ.
