Γεννητική Ωρίμανση: Lm ? range ? - ? cm Max length : 15.0 cm TL αρσενικό/απροσδιόριστο; (Αναφ. 4); 10.5 cm TL (female)
Rostrum ending in three teeth, the median tooth broad and triangular, the lateral teeth much shorter. A groove between the median and lateral teeth, also a very shallow median longitudinal groove. Lower surface of rostrum without spines. Anterolateral border of carapace with a very small tooth at the level of the eye. First pereiopods subchelate. Dactylus of adult male on inner surface with a longitudinal row of 6-12 tubercles, that are placed close together. Carpus with some anterior spines. Merus with a subdistal anterodorsal spine (Ref. 4).
It has lengths of 11 cm, total body length (Ref. 259); 15 cm (males) and 10.5 cm (females), total length (Refs. 4, 258). It burrows in muddy sand of the intertidal zone, sometimes under rocks; burrows are Y-shaped, and about 0.6 to 1 m deep (Ref. 4). Found in bays and estuaries (Ref. 112892).
Life cycle and mating behavior
Γεννητική Ωρίμανση | Αναπαραγωγή | Γεννοβολία | Eggs | Γονιμότητα | 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.
