Biologi     Ordlista (t.ex. epibenthic)

Intertidal to subtidal (Ref. 106854). Lives in existing burrows in shallow and rough bottom habitats, often on or near coral reefs (Ref. 92), and on reef flats at a depth of 36 m (Ref. 80410). Feeds on scyllarids; active during the day; uses its buttressed raptorial claws to smash hard-bodied prey. Largest 'smasher' (Ref. 92).

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

Some members of the order Stomatopoda pair for life and some come together only to mate. Males produce sperm ducts rather than spermatophores; females can brood a maximum of 50,000 eggs. Life cycle: Eggs hatch to a planktonic zoea which lasts for 3 months.
