Remarks | Inhabits tidepools at a depth of 3 to 6 m, or forming thick carpets on soft muddy substrates in well-protected areas. Seasonality in growth in sandy-muddy habitats appears to be related to the turbidity and salinity of the water (Ref. 80758). Also in mangrove prop roots and other hard substrates up to 80 m depth (Ref. 83908). |
