The first larval stage of Coronis scolopendra is an antizoea with 5 pairs of biramous thoracic appendages; abdominal appendages are absent. This is the first larval stage of a nannosquillid to be identified with certainty and only the second lysiosquilloid for which the first larva is known. Instead of attaching their eggs to the walls of their burrows like other stomatopods, females of C. scolopendra carry their egg masses.
