Epibiotic (Ref. 111011). Occurs in subtidal and low tide areas, and it usually covers bare rocks. Found on a dead branch of A. wollastoni (Ref. 2767). Part of fouling communities attached to raft frames in mariculture zones (Ref. 127121).
Life cycle and mating behavior
Maturity | Reproduction | Spawning | Eggs | Fecundity | Larvae
Members of the superorder Thoracica are mostly hermaphroditic. Broadcast spawners, fertilization occurs in the mantle cavity. Life cycle: Eggs hatch into planktonic nauplii and leave the mantle cavity. Afterwards, they undergo six naupliar instars succeded by nonfeeding cypris larva (settling stage) which later metamorphose into adults.
Young, P.S. 1998. (Ref. 3549)
