Eponymy: Dr Luis Hugo Howell-Rivero (1899–1986) was a Cuban biologist and anthropologist at the University of Havana. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Life cycle and mating behavior
পরিপক্কতা | প্রজনন | ডিম ছাড়া | ডিমসমূহ | ডিম্বধারন ক্ষমতা | শুককীট
Oviparous, paired eggs are laid. Embryos feed solely on yolk (Ref. 50449). Sexual dimorphism is evident in dentition of males (Ref. 49562). Males have longer teeth with fewer cusps (Ref. 51093) to make 'courtship biting' more effective (Ref. 49562).
