Plates XXVIII and XXIX. Second-Stage Lobster. 



The appearance of the larva in this stage is similar to that of the first stage. 

 The eyes, however, are relatively smaller, the thoracic appendages are further 

 developed, and the abdominal appendages have appeared on the under side of 

 the abdomen. The tail is still broad and fan-like. At the age of six days the 

 second-stage larva is about 9.5 mm. long.
