Abstract:An attempt has been made to estimate volumes of eggs and egg-capsules employing the formula of the rotationellipsoid. Measurements of the following stages have been made: immediately after oviposition; blastula; gastrula; appearance of velumanlage; velarcilia, foot and velum small; velarcilia, foot and velum distinct; 1 to 2 days before hatching; hatching. Calculations permitt analysis of: (1) relationship between egg-case volume and egg-volume; (2) capsule volumes during development until hatching in comparison to those after oviposition (enlargement factor). The sacoglossan nudibranch Elysia viridis shows no increase in capsule volume during development. The nudibranchs Catriona aurantia, Tergipes despectus, Eubranchus exiguus, Eubranchus cingulatus, Eubranchus pallidus, Eubranchus farrani and Janolus cristatus reveal a distinct increase in capsule volume when velarcilia, foot, and velum appear. The degree of eggcapsule enlargement and its intensity during development exhibit interspecific differences. The results of this and of a previous paper (Kress, 1971) are compared and discussed with respect to possible explanations for the enlargements, (e.g. excretion of larval kidneys, composition of capsular fluid, influence of salinity).
