Maturity: Lm 1.8  range ? - ? cm Max length : 3.4 cm CL male/unsexed; (Ref. 106434); 4 cm CL (female)

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Maximum depth from Ref. 97531. Maximum length based on occurrence (Ref. 106434); to be replaced with a better reference. Occurs in the continental shelf (Ref. 122888) and bathyal communities of the upper and middle slope (Refs. 113874, 102666), where it is dominant in the latter (Ref. 102666). Found in muddy and rocky bathyal substrates (Ref. 122889).

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

Members of the order Decapoda are mostly gonochoric. Mating behavior: Precopulatory courtship ritual is common (through olfactory and tactile cues); usually indirect sperm transfer.
