The pelagic larvae are sometimes found in enormous quantities and likewise the young can be found in large amounts on the sediment surface. The growth rate of <i>E. cordatum</i> varies with the environment. It grows faster in shallow, sandy than in deep, muddy areas, possibly under the influence of temperature. The species can live for 10 to 20 years (Mortensen, 1927; Wolff, 1973; Fish & Fish, 1989; Rees & Dare, 1993).</p><p><p></p><p>Depending on the temperature, the species digs a few centimetres to about 20 cm deep into the sediment. A respiratory channel (chimney) leads from the hole to the surface and one or two sanitary drains are located horizontally behind the echinoid. The animal is isolated from the sediment by a mucus veil, which plasters the burrow. <i>E. cordatum</i> plays an important role in sediment bioturbation (Mortensen, 1927; De Ridder et al., 1987; Fish & Fish, 1989; Rees & Dare, 1993). <i>E. cordatum</i> is a non-selective deposit feeder. lt collects particles from the s 3346d6708f04fdca61ea5180a84d5eac 2507986 WoRMS for SMEBD World Register of Marine Species Copyright Some rights reserved http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/ Supplier WoRMS World Register of Marine Species http://www.marinespecies.org/ 8848 worms Location Source URL View original data object http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=124392 Citation English cc-by-nc-sa 3.0 Text http://content6.eol.org/content_large.jpg http://content7.eol.org/content_medium.jpg http://content8.eol.org/content_small.jpg Ecology: benthic, inshore, continental shelf, deposit feeder.
