Abstract

It is maintained that in order for our hypothesis (Todd & Doyle 1981) to be upheld it is not necessary 'that both optimal spawning date and optimal settlement date are closely de te rm~ned by environmental conditions' and that 'evidence is (not) l ack ing . . . in the species examined by (us)' (Grant & Williamson 1985). Nevertheless, it is accepted that more detailed additional data on the pelagic larval stage of Onchidoris bilamellata, at ambient field temperatures, would be of considerable value in clarifying some of the issues raised in Grant & Williamson's critique.
