Larval development of Limnoperna fortunei

Mature sperm cells of Limnoperna fortunei measure about 4 µm, and ova are typically spherical, 80-100 µm in diameter. Forty minutes after spawning, the first polar lobe appears, and the first division occurs 14 min later. Slightly over an hour after spawning, the second polar lobe appears and the se...
