Biologie     Verklarende woordenlijst (b.v. epibenthic)

Usually caught using otter trawls. Pair trawls are used for offshore fishing and smaller catches and to a lesser extent, squid light-lures and traps. Push nets and lift nets are used for inshore and coastal fishing (Ref. 346). Commercially caught from Gulf of Thailand and Andaman Sea (Ref. 1695). Occurs from shore down to 60 m (Ref. 275).

Life cycle and mating behavior Geslachtsrijpheid | Voortplanting | Kuitschieten | Eieren | Fecundity | Larven

Members of the class Cephalopoda are gonochoric. Male and female adults usually die shortly after spawning and brooding, respectively. Mating behavior: Males perform various displays to attract potential females for copulation. During copulation, male grasp the female and inserts the hectocotylus into the female's mantle cavity where fertilization usually occurs. Life cycle: Embryos hatch into planktonic stage and live for some time before they grow larger and take up a benthic existence as adults.
