	<dc:description>Range from coastal waters to about 300 m depth (Ref. 3167).  Feed on all kinds of bottom animals (Ref. 3167).  Oviparous.  Distinct pairing with embrace.  Young may tend to follow large objects, such as their mother (Ref. 205).  Eggs are oblong capsules with stiff pointed horns at the corners deposited in sandy or muddy flats (Ref. 205).  About 80-154 eggs are laid by an individual in a year (Ref. 41305).</dc:description>
