The porcellanid crabs Petrolisthes haigae Chace 1962, and P nobilii Haig 1960, are shallow-water species distributed along the tropical Eastern Pacific shores. Larvae of both species from eight and four females, collected at Taboga and Naos Islands, respectively, were hatched in the laboratory. First zoeal stages of these species are described and illustrated for the first time and compared to previously first zoeae of other congeneric species from western Panama. Characters of the first zoeae of both species most closely agree with those Osawa's (2002) Group 4 of larvae.
瓷蟹属的哈氏瓷蟹（Petrolisthes haigae Chace，1962年）和诺氏瓷蟹（P. nobilii Haig，1960年）是分布于热带东太平洋沿岸的浅水物种。分别从塔沃加岛和瑙斯岛采集的8只和4只雌性的这两个物种的幼体，在实验室中孵化。首次描述并图示了这两个物种的第一期蚤状幼体，并与巴拿马西部其他同属物种先前的第一期蚤状幼体进行了比较。这两个物种第一期蚤状幼体的特征与小泽（2002年）的第4组幼体最为相符。
