ALT Examples of (A, B, E–G) the vivid pink and blue colorations on copepod egg cases removed from normally colored females noted in the laboratory, and (C, D, H) blue and pink adult female copepods collected from the field. When (A, B) copepod eggs were held together, putative patent infection appeared to spread to adjacent egg cases. For (E–G) individually held egg cases, egg sacs derived from the same adult female copepod both failed to hatch in most observations where coloration was later noted in one of the egg cases, even though they were not held together (Table 1).
