Sexual phases in Bankia neztalia (Bivalvia: Teredinidae) from Wellington Harbour

Pages 277-282 | Received 17 Mar 1980, Published online: 30 Mar 2010
 

Sexual phases similar to those described for other teredinids are described for Bankia neztalia Turner & McKoy from Wellington Harbour. Examination of gonads of specimens collected during 1970–72 showed that B. neztalia is a protandrous hermaphrodite. Spawning times could not be determined on the basis of gonad stages alone.
