Corrugated lobster is female and male heterozygous. Male shrimp reproductive pore is located in the 5th step foot base of the reproductive protuberance, the 5th step foot end claw-like, swimming foot single limb type, no internal limbs, undeveloped. Female shrimp reproductive pore is located in the 3rd step foot base, the 5th part of the foot end of the semi-pincer-like, swimming foot two limbs type, column of feathery bristles, more developed than the male shrimp. Ripple lobster breeding season in May and September, the peak in July and August. In the breeding season, lobster mating, the male shrimp sperm injection into the female shrimp fifth thoracic section of the abdominal plate, and then secretion of gelatinous material will sperm paste in the female shrimp abdominal plate, forming a piece of asphalt. Eggs are laid a few hours later, at which time the female shrimp breaks the sperm block with the claw of the fifth peduncle fork, releasing the sperm and completing fertilization. The fertilized egg adheres to the ventral limb via the egg stalk.
Corrugated lobster eggs for the middle yellow eggs, yolk-rich water temperature of 27 a 29 ℃, the embryonic development period of 26 a 34 d ( average of 30 d). The embryogenesis of corrugated lobster can be divided into the following stages: l) oocyst stage, the syncytial fertilized egg divides continuously by mitosis into 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128 cells; 2) blastocyst stage, the blastocyst is a surface blastocyst, the yolk granules of the germinal cells are concentrated to the inside to form the primary yolk cones; 3) protozoa stage, the protozoa is formed with internal traps as the main part, and the cell division of the animal pole accelerates to form a hemispherical dense cell, which is a hemispherical cell. a semicircular sphere of densely packed cells, the embryonic zone; 4) the unsegmented larval stage; 5) the 7-pair appendage stage; 6) the 9-pair appendage stage; 7) the 11-pair appendage stage; 8) the compound eye pigment formation stage; 9) the intramembranous larval stage; and 10) the follicular larval formation stage. Throughout the embryonic development period, fertilized eggs gradually changed from bright orange-red to deep orange-red, reddish-red, reddish-violet, grayish-white, and finally close to transparent. In the breeding season, the female shrimp can hold eggs 2 or 3 times, that is, hold eggs female shrimp hatch leafy larvae after 15-20d interval and again after mating, holding eggs, each holding eggs female shrimp hatch leafy larvae number of 2×105-3×105 only.
