Description

As a member of the clade Patellogastropoda, Cryptobranchia kuragiensis are mostly gonochoric and broadcast spawners. In terms of their life cycle, embryos develop into planktonic trocophore larvae and later into juvenile veligers before becoming fully grown adults. [3]

Distribution

Cryptobranchia kuragiensis can be found in the Northwest Pacific waters around Japan. [4]
