This is very common species in littoral and shallow depths. It appears in many reports treating collections from the Indo-West Pacific. It has not been collected as yet in the western hemisphere or the west coast of Africa (Ref. 9). Coastal (Ref. 19); shallow and littoral depths (Ref. 9).
Life cycle and mating behavior
成熟度 | 繁殖 | 產卵場 | 卵 | 孕卵數 | 仔魚
Members of the class Pycnogonida are gonochoric and sexually dimorphic. During copulation, male usually suspends itself beneath the female. Fertilization occurs as the eggs leave the female's ovigers. Males brood the egg masses until they hatch. Life cycle: Eggs hatch into protonymphon larva then to adults.
