Species | Development state | Trait | Primary Data | Secondary Data |
Morone saxatilis | Egg | Incubation time | Development is rapid, eggs hatch in about 48 hours | 48.0 days |
Morone saxatilis | Larvae | Temperature during larval development | Rearing temperature was 17°C to 5 dph, 19°C from 6 to 10 dph and 20°C from 10 dph onwards | 17.0 °C |
Morone saxatilis | Larvae | Onset of exogeneous feeding | The larvae grow quickly from 6 mm total length (Lt) at first feeding (6 days post-hatch, dph) […] Swimbladder inflation and first feeding occurred between 5 and 7 dph (at 19°C) | 6.0 °C * day |
Morone saxatilis | Spawning conditions | Spawning season | Striped bass spawn in spring in numerous estuaries on the east coast of North America | ['April', 'May', 'June'] |
