Summary: | Late embryonic and larval development of the carpet sole
Liachirus melanospilos
was followed until completion of metamorphosis and transition to the juvenile state. Illustrations and morphological descriptions of the early developmental stages are presented. The material of
L. melanospilos
was obtained from ichthyoplankton samples (Central Vietnam) and incubated under laboratory conditions at a temperature of about 24°C. Taxonomic identification of the species was carried out based on the analysis of a partial sequence of the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (
CO1
) gene. |
