Common length from 5.0 to 7.0 cm (Ref. 109255). Found in fine and well sorted sand (Refs. 2723, 2780). An active suspension-feeder (Ref. 96376) and deposit-feeder (Ref. 2743).

Life cycle and mating behavior Könsmognad | Reproduktion | Lek | Eggs | Fecundity | Larvae

Members of the class Bivalvia are mostly gonochoric, some are protandric hermaphrodites. Life cycle: Embryos develop into free-swimming trocophore larvae, succeeded by the bivalve veliger, resembling a miniature clam.
