Figure 3 in Observations of multiple pelagic egg masses from small-sized jumbo squid (Dosidicus gigas) in the Gulf of California

Figure 3. (a) Distribution of Dosidicus gigas embryo and paralarval stages found in six egg masses. The variability in the number of eggs from each mass was due to sampling variability. (b) Estimated age (duration since spawning event) of egg masses based on modal stage. Stages and corresponding ages are based on Watanabe et al. (1996). Note that the May 29 #2 and May 30 #2 masses are slightly older than May 28 #1 even though they have less developed embryos because the Stage 17 age estimate is from 20 rather than 23°C incubation and thus a slower developmental rate. (c) Estimated time the egg masses were spawned based on age.
