Discussion
- kap_R is set at 0.95/2, since the species is hermaphroditic
- tL data indicate that shape is changing during post metam growth, which is implemented
Facts
- Hermaphroditic, but requires cross fertilisation, 6 nauplius stages, 1 non-feeding cyprid stage; broods each 2 weeks; puberty in first season (Ref: nederlandsesoorten, Herm1987)
- First nauplius stage does not feed and lasts a few hours; the cyprid stage lasts 2 d (Ref: Herm1987)
