Abstract



Changes in the biochemical composition, caloric content and energy utilisation during the embryonic stages of Emerita holthuisi were studied. The results show that protein contributes 74% of the total energy available for development. The gross efficiency of the development of E. holthuisi was found to be 46.15%
