Known as a host to various crustaceans (Refs. 100838, 102275). Seen among alpheids, pontoniines, galatheids, and myzostomes (Ref. 101028). Suspension feeder (Ref. 68823).
Life cycle and mating behavior
Γεννητική Ωρίμανση | Αναπαραγωγή | Γεννοβολία | Eggs | Γονιμότητα | Larvae
Members of the class Crinoidea are gonochoric. During spawning, the pinnule walls rupture and the eggs and sperms are shed into the seawater. Life cycle: Embryos elongate into free-swimming larvae (doliolaria) which later sink to the bottom where they metamorphose into stalked sessile crinoid.
