Abstract
Calanus plumchrus did not feed during the last 7 months of its life cycle and the fecundity of each female was dependent on the size of the animal. Each female produced an average of 535 eggs from 9.5 broods over a breeding period of 85 days. Eggs were released in water deeper than 300 m and were calculated to move towards the surface about 26 m/day. Growth from egg to stage V took about 100 days. Growth rate was calculated to be 10.6%/day.
