In Ecuador, the bivalves of genus Spondylus, mainly S. crassisquama and S. leucacanthus, are very seriously threatened by overfishing. This research has implemented experimental protocols for spawning induction and early larval development of S. crassisquama under controlled conditions. This laboratory study has been led at the experimental unit from the Academic practices, Production and Biological Research Centre (CIBPA) at the Santa Elena Peninsula State University (UPSE), located in Mar Bravo beach, Santa Elena Province, Ecuador. A total of 4 individuals of S. crassisquama broodstock (weight, 729,8 ± 113,4 g; length, 138,9 ± 11,9 mm; height, 105,6 ± 5,8 mm) were collected from Ayangue beach and acclimated in 300 L plastic tanks with treated seawater. Briefly, th... view more»
