Length at first maturity / Size / Weight / Age

Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm Max length : 8.0 cm COLD male/unsexed; (Ref. 3373)

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Maximum depth from Ref. 3373. Colony is up to 700 cm long and 8 cm in diameter (Ref. 3373). Found on soft bottom substrates, weakly attached to mud, and on moraine deposits at a depth of 30 m (Ref. 1753), and even on rocky bottoms and prefer areas with a little current when they reach a considerable height (Ref. 87801).

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturity | Reproduction | Spawning | Eggs | Fecundity | Larvae
