Abstract

clam Sydney cockle
Broodstock of the venerid clam Katelysia rhytiphora (Lamy) and of the Sydney cockle Anadara trapezia (Deshayes) were induced to spawn using temperature fluctuations. Larval cultures of K. rhytiphora contained D veligers (97.1±3.7 μm shell width) within 48h, umbonate larvae by day four and pediveligers by day 11. On day 12, pediveligers (198.3±5.39 μm shell width) were placed on settlement screens and allowed to metamorphose over the following 9 days. Larvae of A. trapezia developed to D veliger stage (92.0±3.3 μm shell width) after 48 h and had reached pediveliger (approx. 220 μm) on day 14, at which time they suffered catastrophic mortality. © 1994.
