Species without dorsomedian trunk tubercles and with very low, blind, ocular tubercle. Proboscis massive, constricted medially and distally; chelifores small. Palps of 9 segments, very setose distally as are distal segments of male oviger. Male legs with crowded filed of lateral and ventral setae on third coxae and proximally on femorae while legs of females lack dense fields of setae. Propodi bear similar sole and heel spines with no major or larger spines (Ref. 2157, p. 7).
Life cycle and mating behavior
Γεννητική Ωρίμανση | Αναπαραγωγή | Γεννοβολία | Eggs | Γονιμότητα | 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.
