जीवविज्ञान     शब्द संग्रह (उदाहरणार्थ epibenthic)

Collected in some areas for food and local shellcraft (Ref. 349). Abundant in all kinds of habitats, especially under rocks in turbid water near vital reefs. Populations living in quiet waters tend to develop thinner, more inflated and less callous shells than those inhabiting rough waters (Ref. 349). Members of the family Cypraeidae are primarily carnivores (Ref. 67623).

Members of the order Neotaenioglossa are mostly gonochoric and broadcast spawners. Life cycle: Embryos develop into planktonic trocophore larvae and later into juvenile veligers before becoming fully grown adults.
