The femalepicks them up frequently to clean and aerate them and moves them around the burrow as necessary. When the larvae hatch, they become positively phototaxic and swim out of the burrow. It appears that the male who sits in the burrow entrance may help them leave by creating flushing currents. In at least one other lysiosquilloid, Pullosquilla, the male as well as the female helps care for the eggs.

Where do the eggs hatch? Does the female hold onto them until they do or will she , at one point, move them off to a seperate area?
