Minimum depth from Ref. 83942. This is an epibenthic, subtidal species found on seagrass (Ref. 83942), coral reefs (Ref. 111335), and inhabits shallow areas near mangroves (Ref. 415), or in grassy or muddy sand (Ref. 86832).
Life cycle and mating behavior
Γεννητική Ωρίμανση | Αναπαραγωγή | Γεννοβολία | Eggs | Γονιμότητα | 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.
