Abstract
A series of descriptions of postembryonic developmental stages prior to the adult ofHatschekia multibarbataeIzawa, 2015 is presented based on free-living larvae reared from eggs detached from ovigerous females, as well as on copepodids I-V recovered together with adults fromBrotula multibarbataTemminck & Schlegel, 1846 (Pisces, Ophidiiformes, Ophidiidae). The number of naupliar stages preceding the infective copepodid I is three in this species. The postnaupliar development proceeds linearly, up to the adult.
