					This is a hermaphrotic species.  Egg masses are composed of 29 egg capsules, each one containing up to 721 eggs, and are retained beneath the female shell.  Only a few of the eggs develop and the others serve as nutritional eggs (Ref. 87801).  It displays poecilogonony as its reproductive strategy (Ref. 99837).
