Biology
Oviparous, paired eggs are laid. Embryos feed solely on yolk [733]. Eggs have horn-like projections on the shell [17086]. Larger animals feed on wide variety of crustaceans and fish (Ref. 54177). Small animals up to 30-39 cm D feed mainly on benthic gammarid amphipods and polychaetes, while the smallest
