Biologi     Ordlista (t.ex. epibenthic)

Coastal to shelf (Ref. 19). Epibiotic (Ref. 116112). Known from Carrie Bow Cay in sand trough behind outer reef ridge, in coral, sand, and rubble (Ref. 2086). Part of a fouling community (Ref. 126174).

Life cycle and mating behavior Könsmognad | Reproduktion | Lek | Eggs | Fecundity | Larvae

Members of the class Pycnogonida are gonochoric and sexually dimorphic. During copulation, male usually suspends itself beneath the female. Fertilization occurs as the eggs leave the female's ovigers. Males brood the egg masses until they hatch. Life cycle: Eggs hatch into protonymphon larva then to adults.
