Length at first maturity / Μέγεθος / Weight / Age
Γεννητική Ωρίμανση: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Monocentric, oval or circular, and cylindrical. Base for attachment: present, pointed when free-living. Thick primary septa with extremely large, rounded, or lobed teeth. Paliform lobes usually well developed. Broad and compact columellae. Tentacles extend only at night. Toothed primary septo-costae clearly visible during the day when water inflates the mantle, which is translucent. Mantle may exceed twice the diameter of the skeleton in low light conditions. Color: often a mix of green or brown; pink and other colors possible (Ref. 848).
Maximum depth from Ref. 98471. Occurs in protected reef environments and deep sandy substrates (Ref. 848).
Life cycle and mating behavior
Γεννητική Ωρίμανση | Αναπαραγωγή | Γεννοβολία | Eggs | Γονιμότητα | Larvae
Hermaphroditic (Ref. 113708). Mature gametes are shed into the coelenteron and spawned through the mouth. Life cycle: The zygote develops into a planktonic planula larva. Metamorphosis begins with early morphogenesis of tentacles, septa and pharynx before larval settlement on the aboral end (Ref. 833).
