females living to 143 days and attaining a mantle length of 92mm. Spawning occurs throughout much of the year up to
September in the Gulf of Guinea with two peaks occurring in January and June–July. This species is a vertical diel migrant, i.e. they spend the day at depths and move upwards towards the water surface at night to feed.

growth of specimens collected from the Gulf of Guinea showed that it has a short life span of approximately 6 months with individuals attaining sexual maturity in 45–60 days in males and 80–90 days in females. The maximum age is 153 days for mature males and they had grown to 72mm mantle length with
