The paper deals with larval stages of three carangid fishes Alectis ciliaris, A. indicus and Atropus atropus collected during the survey programme of UNDP/FAO/Pelagic Fishery Project, Cochin during 1971-1975 along the Southwest coast of India. Observations on the distinctive features of the larvae, post larvae and their seasonal occurrence and area of distribution are given. The larvae of the above species were rare in the collection, being represented by 48, 45 and 41 numbers respectively. The larvae of Alectis spp. were obtained during February to April and A. atropus during May-June.
