Pontella meadi Wheeler produces resting eggs in fall which hatch the following summer. Experiments show that these eggs require 4–8 wk of incubation at 2–3 or 5–6 °C for substantial hatching to occur. Eggs occur in sediment in winter. Resting eggs serve to repopulate temperate inshore areas with this species after its winter disappearance from the plankton.
