The zoeal and the megalopal stages of the land hermit crab Coenobita violascens Heller, 1862 are described and illustrated from laboratory-reared material, and compared with larvae of nine other described coenobitid species. The larvae developed through four planktonic zoeal stages to the megalopal stage. Coenobita violascens had characteristics of zoeal pleomeres and megalopal antennules typical of those found in other Coenobita species, excluding C. brevimanus.

Shell occupation by the land hermit crab Coenobita violascens (Anomura, Coenobitidae) from Phuket Island, Thailand
Shell occupation by the land hermit crab Coenobita violascens Heller, 1862 was investigated from January 2011 to March 2012 on Phuket Island in the Andaman Coast of Th ailand. Th e samples of C.…
Tolerance of low salinity by larvae in six terrestrial hermit crab species (Decapoda: Anomura: Coenobitidae)
TLDR
The low salinity tolerance ability of megalopae did not differ among species, suggesting that coenobitid meGalopae might require similar habitats for the settlement and initiation of benthic life, and suggesting a larval export strategy towards the offshore (oceanic) marine waters.
Larval release and associated tree-climbing behavior of the land hermit crab Coenobita violascens Heller, 1862 (Anomura: Coenobitidae)
TLDR
For this species, which is adapted to mangrove habitats, larval release onMangrove roots with tree climbing and clear lunar and tidal rhythms enhances the probability of as many larvae as possible reaching the sea with a receding tide.

Larval development of the land hermit crab Coenobita scaevola (Forskål, 1775) (Crustacea: Anomura: Coenobitidae) reared in the laboratory
TLDR
The complete larval development of Coenobita scaevola (Forskal, 1775) is described, based on laboratory rearing, and a central telson process in the later zoeal stages appears to be a character of the CoenOBitidae.
Abbreviated Larval Development in the Australian Terrestrial Hermit Crab Coenobita Variabilismcculloch (Anomura: Coenobitidae)
TLDR
The complete larval development of the Australian terrestrial hermit crab Coenobita variabilis McCulloch is described from laboratory-reared specimens, and the megalopa shows no evidence of advanced development.
LARVAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE LAND HERMIT CRAB COENOBITA COMPRESSUS H. MILNE EDWARDS REARED IN THE LABORATORY
TLDR
The complete larval development of the land hermit crab Coenobita compressus is described from specimens reared in the laboratory at 26°C and can be distinguished from the other seven described coenobitids by the setation of the maxillule and antenna.
LARVAL GROWTH OF THE COCONUT CRAB BIRGUS LATRO WITH A DISCUSSION ON THE DEVELOPMENT MODE OF TERRESTRIAL HERMIT CRABS
TLDR
When fed Artemia nauplii enriched with nutritious substances, the zoeae had significantly greater survivorship and sizes, particularly at the fourth and fifth zoeal stages, and Accelerated development may suggest early adaptation to a terrestrial lifestyle.
Larval development and emigration behaviour during sea-to-land transition of the land hermit crab Coenobita brevimanus Dana, 1852 (Crustacea: Decapoda: Anomura: Coenobitidae) under laboratory conditions
To determine the early life history of the land hermit crab Coenobita brevimanus Dana, 1852, larvae were cultured individually in the laboratory. The zoeal and the megalopal stages are described and…
Reproductive Biology of Three Land Hermit Crabs (Decapoda: Anomura: Coenobitidae) in Okinawa, Japan
TLDR
My observations suggest that coenobitid crabs living in areas with a low supply of shells or with poor shells reproduce at smaller sizes, as is the case in marine hermit crabs.
