In their ontogeny, delta smelt may show special requirements and tolerances to environmental conditions including salinity. Here, we describe 22 stages of embryonic growth of H. transpacificus that characterize early differentiation from the fertilized egg until hatching, allowing the recognition of critical morphological functions unique to this species. Additionally, we investigated components of physiological tolerance to ecological salinity during development. Embryos survived incubation
