Members of this genus are predominantly found on the continental shelf. Usually found from the intertidal to subtidal zones, in algal and seagrass beds, in dead intertidal and subtidal corals, dead barnacles and oyster shells (Ref. 107636). Members of the family Sphaeromatidae are omnivores in general (Ref. 108484). Genus Cymodoce are considered herbivores and predators of sponges (Ref. 108483).
Life cycle and mating behavior Maturity | Reproduction | Spawning | Eggs | Fecundity | Larvae
Members of the order Isopoda are mostly gonochoric. Mating behavior: Mating usually occurs before and sometimes during the parturial molt. Sperm transfer is indirect. Life cycle: Eggs are brooded in the marsupium, which later hatch into manca postlarva before developing into adults.
