Description: 

Age of larvae in days in the format DX where X = how many days old the larva was*. For specimens where age was unclear: DS = d-stage;
VE = veliger;
PV = pedi-veliger larvae (unclear how old);
R = larvae released from brood (for brooding species);
H = larvae at time of harvest (for brooding species).
