Abstract
No account exists of the mechanism of food collection of nudibranch larvae, and, in fact, it has been considered unlikely that feeding does take place in these forms. Thorson (1946, p. 275) states ‘Nudibranch larvae will normally take no—or only little—food from the plankton’.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
