Short description Morfologi

Diameter of the foot: 2.5 cm. Oral disc, tentacles not included/understood: 6 cm; cuts vertical, 20 cm. 136 tentacles: are laid out in 6 crowns around the siphonoglyphe; each one of them can measure up to 6 cm length. Coloring is fluctuating, rear related to the density of symbiotic algae, zooxanthella the, present ones within fabrics. The tentacles more or less transparent; and are avoided reasons in band or reticules, of white color to green, absent at ecotype I (Ref. 358).

Biologi     Ordlista (t.ex. epibenthic)

Found on various rock funds, inside excavations and of cracks (Ref. 201). Known from infralittoral zones (Ref. 85338). Solitary (Ref. 2377).

Life cycle and mating behavior Könsmognad | Reproduktion | Lek | Eggs | Fecundity | Larvae

Members of the class Anthozoa are either gonochoric or hermaphroditic. Mature gametes are shed into the coelenteron and spawned through the mouth. Life cycle: The zygote develops into a planktonic planula larva. Metamorphosis begins with early morphogenesis of tentacles, septa and pharynx before larval settlement on the aboral end.
