Crustacean larva stop after a single copepodid stage. Once the gonads develop, there are no further moults. Chalimus (plural chalimi) is a stage of development of a copepod parasite of fish, such as the salmon louse ("Lepeophtheirus salmonis"). "Chalimus" Burmeister, 1834 is also a synonym for "Lepeophtheirus" Nordmann, 1832. The single genus in the Facetotecta, "Hansenocaris", is only known from its larvae. They were first described by Christian Andreas Victor Hensen in 1887, and named "y-nauplia" by Hans Jacob Hansen, assuming them to be the larvae of barnacles. The adults are presumed to be parasites of other animals. Crustacean larva Crustaceans may
Branta material and comparisms with other subfossil bones assigned to the genus "Branta" it was redescribed as "Branta rhuax" in 2013. It was another prehistoric Big Island form and remains known only from some parts of a single bird's skeleton, which were much damaged because the bird apparently died in a volcanic eruption, with the bones being found in an ash-filled depression under a lava flow. A presumed relation to the shelducks proposed by Lester Short in 1970 was generally considered highly unlikely due to that group's biogeography, but more recently, bones of a shelduck-like bird have been found on Kaua‘i.
