Abstract

Growth and survival of larval yellowleg shrimp, Farfantepenaeus californiensis, were evaluated at salinities of 30, 33, 36 and 38 ppt and temperature of 25.0 ± 0.5ºC, in La Paz, Baja California Sur, Mexico. No significant differences in growth were observed among treatments. Survival was similar at salinities of 30, 33 and 36 ppt. A lower survival was observed at 38 ppt. No significant differences were observed in the time to reach larval substages at different salinities.
