Depth range based on Belize from Ref. 86832. Burrows in sand and is often associated with seagrass beds (Ref. 85218). This is a highly burrowing form. A fish is known to live inside the body (Ref. 118). Caribbean specimens eject Cuvierian tubules when disturbed (Ref. 85218). Deposit feeder (Ref. 833).
Life cycle and mating behavior
Könsmognad | Reproduktion | Lek | Eggs | Fecundity | Larvae
Members of the class Holothuroidea are gonochoric and have only one gonad. Spawning and fertilization are both external and some exhibit brooding. Life cycle: Embryos develop into planktotrophic larvae (auricularia) then into doliolaria (barrel-shaped stage) which later metamorphose into juvenile sea cucumbers.
