PREFACE Copepod development has been studied for almost 250 years, and pub- lished descriptions of the exoskeletal morphology have been the dominant theme for most of that time. Almost half a century transpired between the first description of a post-embryonic developmental stage and a description that included a complete set of all developmental stages of a copepod. Interpretive questions about post-embryonic development based on an incomplete set of stages date from the early nineteenth century, but more recently researchers have discovered that interpretations are more interesting and nuanced if all developmental stages can be incorporated into the analysis. In this monograph, we focus, whenever possible, on interpretations derived from a complete set of all developmental stages. We diagnose both the nau- plius and the copepodid in order to promote such interpretations. We discuss variation in the number of naupliar stages and of copepodid stages among copepods, and also outline variation in the exoskeletal morphology of both the naupliar and copepodid phases of development. Internal anatomy is of interest to us, as is behavior and ecology, although observations from a com- plete set of developmental stages usually are not available on these topics. We find it interesting that at present stage-specific studies of internal anatomy during the naupliar phase of development are more complete than studies of the copepodid phase, while distributions in space and through time are more apt to be completely known for the copepodid phase of development. We spend some time discussing variations of the order in which somites are added to the copepod body, and analysing the order segments are added to its limbs during development. One result of particular interest to us is how often the architecture of the body or configuration of the limbs are shaped by failure to form arthrodial membranes, resulting in somite or segment complexes. A model for patterning the body of copepodids has been known for almost a century, and that model is used to help us infer the somite number of the naupliar stages. Observations of limb patterning date from the early twentieth century, but models have been proposed only recently. Because the architecture of the naupliar body and the configuration of its limbs are quite different from the situation for the copepodid body, we analyse in detail the transition between these two phases of development. 2 CRM 008 - Frank D. Ferrari & Hans-Uwe Dahms Phylogenetic analyses are the coin of the contemporary realm for mor- phologists, and post-embryonic development has contributed to many phylo- genetic hypotheses. We are pleased to discuss them. Finally, we close with suggestions for future studies that seem to us technically possible and intel- lectually valuable. We dedicate this work to the memories of Patricia Dudley, late of Columbia University, and Paul Illg, late of the University of Washington, whose think- ing about copepod development, and particularly how limbs are patterned, appeared to be so far ahead of their time. We are pleased to extend our thanks to the following individuals who helped make this work possible. Lana Ong and Molly Kelly Ryan, Smithso- nian Institution, prepared the illustrations. David Damkaer of Cocker Creek, Washington, answered questions historical. Mark Grygier, Lake Biwa Mu- seum, collected nauplii of Leptestheria kawachiensis; Ted Durbin, Univer- sity of Rhode Island, cultured developmental stages of Calanus finmarchicus; Wim Klein Breteler, Royal Netherlands Institute for Sea Research, cultured stages of Temora longicomis; Debbie Steinberg, then at the Bermuda Sta- tion for Biological Research, collected copepodids of Euchirella messinen- sis; John Fornshell, Cambridge Scientific Press, collected stages of Longi- pedia americana, Acrocalanus gibber, and Derocheilocaris
