Trunk relatively compact, unsegmented; lateral processes separated by half their diameters or slightly more, without tubercles or setae. Ocular tubercle low, only as tall as its width; eyes small. Proboscis cylindrical, tapering distally. Abdomen moderately long, with 2 lateral setae. Chelifores robust, with few distal setae; chelae palms oval; fingers short, well curved, without teeth. Oviger second segment robust, about half as long as third. Legs with few setae; major dorsodistal setae not as long as segment diameters; cement gland tube short, less than half segment diameter; propodus robust, well curved, with 2 major heel spines, 2 setae, and very short distal sole lamina; claw slender; auxiliaries minute, sometimes lacking (Ref. 2115, p. 53).
Coastal to shelf (Ref. 19). On floating Sargassum (Ref. 19 and 2115, page 53). Epibiotic, planktonic (Ref. 91956).
Life cycle and mating behavior
परिपक्व अवधि | पुनरुत्पत्ति | मछलीऔ का अंडे देना | Eggs | Fecundity | Larvae
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.
