Abstract:

In this research, we did in vitro pilot study to breed slipper lobster Scyllarideslatus(latreille, 1803). This species of lobsters was chosen for its economic value All individuals were collected from sea water on Lattkia,syria coast, mothers put in acclimation tank (11/3/2019) with density about 3 ind./m3 with temperatures similar to it's at the environment, the temperature were 24°c gradually rising to 31°c through 2-8 weeks with staying of the propagation typical conditions (salinity 37-39 ppt, 8-8.5 pH and 6-7 mg/l dissolved Oxygen). The water exchange rates were 30% daily and light period was determined as 14 hours light daily feeding. Mothers put in a propagation tank by average male: female, eggs release was observed during 48 hour, the tanks water was tested by microscope to check the presence of phyllosoma.
