Könsmognad: Lm 12.4 range ? - ? cm Max length : 12.0 cm ML hane/ej könsbestämd; (Ref. 96968); publicerad maxvikt: 5.0 kg (Ref. 96968)
Total length is 130 cm (Ref. 96968). Minimum depth from Ref. 96968. It was also known to be caught by artificial lures and dipnets. In the 1980's catch was reported from 5000 to 8000 tonnes annually. Then in 2000, it was estimated around 9000 tonnes (Ref. 96968). This is a benthic and subtidal species found in rocky and seagrass bottoms (Ref. 83938). Also inhabits empty coral shells (Ref. 275) and coral reefs (Ref. 96968).
Life cycle and mating behavior Könsmognad | Reproduktion | Lek | Eggs | Fecundity | 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.
