The 144.9 mm size reported by Wagner & Abbott (1973) needs confirmation. Wagner & Abbott (1967) reported a maximum size of 117 mm, which itself is an error for 112 mm (specimen is in ANSP; Ref. 83435). Inhabits seagrass beds, shallow reefs, sand and rubble (Ref. 106835). Feeds on diatoms and other epiphytic algae. Resides in deep waters of 10 m or greater during winter and migrates to shallow waters of 2 m during summer to spawn (Ref. 105282).
Broadcast spawners. Life cycle: Free-swimming larvae hatch from eggs and develop into veligers which later settle down the water column and undergo metamorphosis into juvenile conch (Refs. 833, 105282). Mating behavior: Males that attempt to mate with a female being guarded by another male fight over with each other in a sparring contest using their proboscis (Refs. 105242, 105282).
