Egg production by the copepod Temora styl@ra was significantly influenced by the algal composition of the diet. Egg production was higher with Hymenomonas elongata as food than with Phaeodactylum tricomutum, Skeletonema costatum or a mixture of the three species. Egg production increased also with concentration of food reaching a maximum of 277 + 20 eggs per female in 7 days. The parameters of the equation describing this relation:y = a( 1 - e-k) + c were cakulated for Temora sty&era fed ~ymenomonas elongata. Egg production was measured in terms of carbon and nitrogen; it reached 131% of the body weight of the adult in carbon and 53% of its body weight in nitrogen per 7 days. Influence of food and season on egg was also shown.
