Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

An active suspension feeder (Ref. 96376). Infaunal, found on sandy substrates (Ref. 113223).

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturity | Reproduction | Spawning | Eggs | Fecundity | Larvae

Members of the class Bivalvia are mostly gonochoric, some are protandric hermaphrodites. Life cycle: Embryos develop into free-swimming trocophore larvae, succeeded by the bivalve veliger, resembling a miniature clam.
