The development of swift's scallop Chlamys swiftii, reared in the laboratory, has been examined through the investigation of morphological characteristics in fertilized egg, larvae and juvenile. Eggs were fertilized with a dilute sperm solution to improve the survival of fertilized eggs. Developing larvae were maintained at a temperature of 16 ± 0.5℃ and salinity concentration of 33 ppt. We have investigated the fertilization rates and egg number spawned at several stimulating conditions such as sunlight exposure, air dry, seawater temperature rise (5℃) and seawater temperature rise (5℃) after exposure of air dry for spawning induction of swift's scallop Chamys swiftii. Stimulation treated with sunlight exposure and seawater temperature rise (5℃) have shown the spawning number of 700,000-900,000 and 700,000-800,000 per individual, respectively while stimulation treated with seawater temperature rise (5℃) after exposure of air dry have shown the high spawning number of 1,000,000-1,500,000 per individual. Survival rate of D-shaped larvae of swift's scallop put into the different seawater temperatures of 8℃, 12℃, 16℃, 20℃ and 24℃ has been 4.1%, 11.6%, 32.7%, 18.6% and 3.2%, respectively. Fertilized eggs with the diameter of 72 μm developed into trochophore larvae of 103 ± 3.8 μm shortly after 35 hours and to D larvae of 129 ± 10.4 μm shell length within 72 hours. It took 336 hours to become initial Umbo-stage larva of 145 ± 16.8 μm shell length. Post larvae, which have been 197 ± 13.6 μm shell length, spontaneously have settled in the attachment substances. It have required 528 hours from fertilized eggs to early attached juvenile to become initial juvenile size of 245 ± 15.8 μm shell length.
