title: Morphology of the Nauplii and Duration of Naupliar Development of the Black Sea Alien Species Oithona davisae Ferrari and Orsi, 1984 (Copepoda: Cyclopoida) in Laboratory Culture
abstract: The paper presents descriptions, original drawings and digital photos, and also the key for identifying naupliar stages of recent invader species in the Black Sea Oithona davisae (Copepoda: Cyclopoida). Nauplii were taken from a laboratory culture originating from the offspring of O. davisae females selected from living zooplankton sampled in Sevastopol Bay. Copepods were reared under natural illumination, temperature of 21 ± 2°C, and feeding with cryptophyte culture IBSS-CrPr54 (ESD = 10.9 ± 1.
