Frequently in the Indo-West Pacific for food and shellcraft (Ref. 349). Depth range is based on occurrence in French Polynesia (Ref. 101327); to be replaced with a better reference. Under stones and in crevices of rocky headlands exposed to strong wave action (Ref. 349). Usually found among dark rocks (Ref. 799). Mostly active at night. Mainly inhabits shallow subtidal levels. Occurs at the low tide mark (Ref. 349). Most cypraeids are herbivores (Ref. 113307).
Life cycle and mating behavior Γεννητική Ωρίμανση | Αναπαραγωγή | Γεννοβολία | Eggs | Γονιμότητα | Larvae
Members of the order Neotaenioglossa are mostly gonochoric and broadcast spawners. Life cycle: Embryos develop into planktonic trocophore larvae and later into juvenile veligers before becoming fully grown adults.
