• The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of 12 combinations of salinity and temperature on larval growth of Litopenaeus vannamei, starting in nauplius V (NV) and ending at postlarva (PL1), a process which lasted seven days. The results show that the larvae have greater length and weight at temperatures of 30 to 35°C in combination with salinities between 25 and 35. In conclusion, salinity and temperature are important factors to consider for the production of larvae of L. vannamei.
