It is possible that in opisthobranch egg masses, the jelly may influence oxygen diffusion so that O: tension is lower in the center of an egg mass than at the periphery, thus slowing the rate of development of the central em- bryos. As H. callidegenita produce thick, cylindrical egg masses, and as the egg string is irregularly deposited in each jelly mass, we thought the distance between embryo and egg mass surface may be influential in determining the rate of development and therefore the hatching stage. The effect of decreasing the jelly thickness around devel- oping embryos was determined by examining the per- cent veligers hatching daily from intact egg masses, masses cut in 2-mm thick slices, and encapsulated em- bryos removed from the mass jelly. Encapsulated em- bryos could be raised successfully without the jelly mass; there was a 100% success rate in hatching of healthy veli-.
