Abstract	Complete development of phyllosomas wasaccomplished in Palinurus elephas, Panulirus japonicus, Jasus edwardsii and J. verreauxi. Larval development differsbetween species in duration and moult frequency aswell as morphology. The highest percent survival was obtained during the phyllosoma stage forJ. verreauxi. Phyllosomas of P. elephas were the mostdifficult to cultureregardless of the fact that they hatch at arelatively advanced stage. Culture experiments werecarried out to improve the percent survival of P. elephas. First instars of P. elephasexhibited vigorous predation upon the larvae ofJapanese sandfish Arctoscopus japonicus.Duration of the first instar was shorter at 12.8days when reared at 18 °C and percent survival wasapproximately 30%. Better results were obtainedfor first instars cultured in water inoculated withChaetoceros sp. and fed enriched Artemianauplii. Phyllosomas of J. edwardsii and P. japonicus were cultured without particulardifficulty. Most distinguishing features of P. elephasis the heavily setose six or seven longspines on the distal edges of the scaphognathite ofthe second maxillae while only four long spines arefound in other species. These facts suggest thatphyllosomas of P. elephas are initiallyplankton feeders and from first instar becomerapacious predators.
