Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm Max length : 3.0 cm SHL male/unsexed; (Ref. 7882)
Species' maximum length from the Belgian part of the North Sea (Ref. 7882). Found along near-coastal zones in a wide variety of sediment types but preferentially in substrate composition of less than 20% mud (Ref. 7882). Inhabits upper clean sand (Ref. 2780). Also found in areas influenced by estuarine outflows (Ref. 96507).
