摘要
1991年4月─1993年8月,对广东、广西、海南的红树蚬Polymesodaerosa(Solander)的生态环境、生活习性与分布等进行了观察。红树蚬分布于热带-亚热带海区,生活在咸淡水交汇的河口和潮间带,生长最适的水温20—28℃,盐度5—20,海水pH7.2─8.2,底质为软泥、泥砂或砂泥,栖息深度约10cm,以底栖硅藻和有机碎屑为食,繁殖期为5—9月。其肉供食用、药用,可发展人工养殖。
Polymesoda erosa (Solander)is a tropical or sub-tropical species distributed widely along the coasts of China from east to south. It is found in mud or sandy-mud stratum in estuaries and along high-tidal zones at a depth of 10cm. The optimum temperature for its growth is from 20 to 28℃, salinity 5 to 20, pH 7. 2 to 8. 2. The animal feeds mainly on diatoms and organic debris.It grows fast before the age of 3. The maximum size collected until now had a shell of 9. 1cm length, 7. 8cm height and 5.1cm width. The animal belongs to gonochorism. Its breeding season occurs from May to September.
