Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Inhabits hard bottoms with stony and sandy substrates (Ref. 125400). A sub-surface/burrowing detritivore (Refs. 95728, 96470).

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturity | Reproduction | Spawning | Eggs | Fecundity | Larvae

Members of the class Clitellata are copulating hermaphrodites. The clitellum, their distinctive feature from polychaetes, serves as a tool in reproduction. It secretes mucus for copulation and forms a cocoon where eggs and albumen are deposited. Life cycle: Zygotes develop in the cocoon and emerge as juveniles which later develop into adults.
