Biologia     Glossario (es. epibenthic)

Assumed maximum length from Ref. 844. Feeds on arborescent bryozoans of the genus Bugula that grow as part of the fouling community in ships' hulls (Ref. 844 and 822); and on Bugula neritina, which is epizootic on eelgrass in shallow estuaries (Ref. 866).

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturità | Riproduzione | Deposizione | Uova | Fecundity | Larve

Members of the order Nudibranchia are simultaneous hermaphrodites. Mating behavior: Both individuals darts their penis toward each other to induce one to act as a male and the other as the female. The victorious one to penetrate the body wall is the dominant male. Life cycle: Eggs are deposited on a substratum where they develop and hatch into (planktonic) vestigial veliger larval stage and further grow as adults.
