The long-spined sea urchin is a spiny, black sea creature that lives on coral reefs. It is one of the most important grazers on Caribbean and western Atlantic reefs, because it eats the algae that could otherwise smother the coral.1

Sihlala

It usually lives on coral reefs at depths of 1 to 10 metres. It often hides in a crevice, so that only its spines can be seen. Those that cannot find a crevice live in more exposed places.1

Ubude

Ukuba amava aso ayakugwaza

Faka inxeba emanzini ashushu, ashushu kangangoko umntu angakwazi ukunyamezela ngaphandle kokutshiswa, kwaye ufumane uncedo lwezonyango ukuze kususwe amava. Musa ukuwemba ngokwakho.

Soloko utsalela inombolo kaxakeka kuqala (112, 000, 911). Esi sisikhokelo soncedo lokuqala ngokubanzi, asilocebiso lwezonyango. Iziseko zoncedo lokuqala

Hlala ukhuselekile

Ungaze uchukumise, ubambe okanye uqhule isilwanyana sasendle, nokuba sincinci, kwaye nokuba sibonakala silele okanye sifile.
Sinike indawo. Ukuba udibana naso, hlala uzolile, buyela umva kancinci kwaye usiyeke sihambe ngendlela yaso.
Ukuba amava aso ayakugwaza: hlala uzolile, musa ukushukuma, tsalela inombolo kaxakeka (112, 000, 911) okanye uye esibhedlele ngokukhawuleza. Khumbula ukuba sasikhangeleka njani, ifoto iyanceda.

Asikuzingeli. Sisebenzisa ityhefu yaso ukubamba ukutya okanye ukuzikhusela, kwaye singakhetha ukuzimela. Okungakumbi malunga nokuhlala ukhuselekile

Iinyaniso

Some individuals have spines up to 30 cm long, while most sea urchins have spines of only 1 to 3 cm.1

In 1983, more than 97% of this sea urchin died across the Caribbean in a mass die-off, and the reefs became overgrown with algae.1

When males and females are ready to spawn, they release a fluid that alerts other urchins to release their eggs and sperm too.1

It is the most abundant and important herbivore on the coral reefs of the western Atlantic and Caribbean.1

Dedicated nurseries that grow these urchins to help restore reefs exist in Jamaica and Puerto Rico.1
