Abstract

The marine fish larvae are generally classified into altricial and precocial type. The altricial type of larvae are having very less yolk reserves at hatching and hence, the larvae are in a undeveloped stage when the yolk sac is completely resorbed. The development of digestive system is also very primitive in these types of larvae. Many of the marine fish species suitable for aquaculture are characterized by having the altricial type of larvae which pose challenges in their larviculture.
