Abstract
A successful in vitro incubation of eggs of Salmincola edwardsii (Olsson,1869), a parasitic copepod living on gills of the Arctic charr (Salvelinus alpinus (L.,1758)) resulted in obtaining nauplii and copepodites of the parasite. The pre-molt nauplii were found to contain well-formed copepodites.
