Bathybenthic (Ref. 1962). Large individuals were found down to 1400 m and small ones were found down to 1835 m (Ref. 1962). Exhibits up-slope ontogenetic migration of juveniles to depths shallower than 1200 to 1400 m (Ref. 1958).
Life cycle and mating behavior
Γεννητική Ωρίμανση | Αναπαραγωγή | Γεννοβολία | Eggs | Γονιμότητα | Larvae
Members of the class Cephalopoda are gonochoric. Male and female adults usually die shortly after spawning and brooding, respectively. Mating behavior: Males perform various displays to attract potential females for copulation. During copulation, male grasp the female and inserts the hectocotylus into the female's mantle cavity where fertilization usually occurs. Life cycle: Embryos hatch into planktonic stage and live for some time before they grow larger and take up a benthic existence as adults.
