Also found on rocky substrates in shelf waters from shallow to deeper continental slope (Ref. 105215) and on Serpula vermicularis reefs (Ref. 122978). In general, galatheid crabs show a wide spectrum of feeding habits, from being detritivorous, vegetarian, omnivorous, to cannibalistic (Ref. 90632).
Members of the order Decapoda are mostly gonochoric. Mating behavior: Precopulatory courtship ritual is common (through olfactory and tactile cues); usually indirect sperm transfer.
