The histological observations indicated the main spawning period in both sexes was from November to March. In addition, the occurrence of blood cockle larvae peaked in November and March. Furthermore, a comparison of the distribution between umbo-stage and full-grown larvae suggested the umbo-stage larvae diffused offshore and return to coastal sites where they settle and mature into full-grown larvae.</p>}, number={6}, journal={International Journal of Aquatic Biology}, author={Yurimoto, Tatsuya and Mohd Kassim, Faizul and Man, Alias and Fuseya, Reiko}, year={2014}, month={Nov.}, pages={299–304} }
