   The genus name Nauplius was published posthumously by Otto Friedrich Müller in 1785 for animals now known to be the larvae of copepods. The nauplius stage (plural: nauplii) is characterised by consisting of only three head segments, which are covered by a single carapace. The posterior body, when present, is unsegmented.

6. Facetotecta - Wikipedia

   The presence of a distinctive cyprid larva indicates that the Facetotecta is a member of the Thecostraca. A number of species have been described on the basis of a y-cyprid alone. [ 8 ] As in barnacles , the cyprid is adapted to seeking a place to settle as an adult.

7. Rhizocephala - Wikipedia

   The female cypris larva in Kentrogonida settles on a host and metamorphoses into a specialized juvenile form, a kentrogon. This has no visible segmentation and no appendages except the antennules . These are used to attach the larva to the host; their only purpose is to inject a cell mass, the vermigon , into the host's hemolymph through a ...

8. Amphibalanus improvisus - Wikipedia

   Marine paints may contain an antifouling substance, the free base form of medetomidine, sold as Selektope. [8] The anti-settling effect against the barnacle has been shown in vitro: [9] When the barnacle cyprid larva encounters a surface containing medetomidine the molecule interacts with the octopamine receptor in the larva. This causes the ...

   It follows the nauplius stage and precedes the post-larva. Zoea larvae swim with their thoracic appendages, as opposed to nauplii, which use cephalic appendages, and megalopa, which use abdominal appendages for swimming. It often has spikes on its carapace, which may assist these small organisms in maintaining directional swimming. [36]
