=== Nauplius and cypris larvae === [[Nauplius (larva)|Nauplii]] released from adult females swim in water for several days without taking food (the larva has no mouth and no intestine) and transform into cypris larvae ([[cyprid]]s) after several [[ecdysis|moults]]. Like the nauplii, the cyprids are lecithotrophic (non-feeding).<ref>{{cite book |last1=Martin |first1=Joel W. |last2=Olesen |first2=Jørgen |last3=Høeg |first3=Jens T. |last4=Høeg |first4=Jens |title=Atlas of Crustacean Larvae |date=2014 |publisher=JHU Press |isbn=978-1-4214-1197-2 |page=99 |quote=The Acrothoracica and Rhizocephala have exclusively lecithotrophic nauplii.
