ABSTRACf Survival and growth of striped bass, Morone sa:l:atilis, and its hybrids were compared in the first 30 days after hatching to determine if the reported heterosis of hybrid striped bass is evident in the larval stage. Larvae of striped bass (SB); striped bass x white bass (WBX), M. sa:l:atilis Q x M. chrysops 0'; and striped bass x white perch (WPX), M. sa:l:atilis Q x M. america'/IQ. 0', were reared under controlled conditions in the laboratory (19°C, 3°too) and under ambient conditions in freshwater pond enclosures. In the laboratory SB had a significantly higher mean survival rate at 30 days of age than either hybrid. In the pond enclosures neither mean survival nor size at 30 days differed significantly among the types of larvae. Mean rates of growth in length, which ranged from 0.28 to 0.36 mm d- I in the laboratory and from 0.30 to 0.32 mm d -I in the enclosures did not differ significantly among the types of larvae. Mean rates of growth in weight of 15.0 to 19.0% d -I were not significantly different in the laboratory, but the rates did differ significantly in the pond enclosures, where the WBX (17.9% d- I ) and WPX (17.3% dI ) rates were significantly higher than the SB (15.5% dI ). If 30-day-old fry were to be reared in hatcheries, there is no clear production advantage for hybrids. A possible initial expression of hybrid vigor, recognized by faster rates of growth in weight, was evident in WBX and WPX at 1 month of age in the pond enclosures but not in the laboratory tanks.
