Parental care in Beddomes Caecilian
Written by scottology on March 3, 2010 – 12:32 pm -Caecilians are limbless amphibians. They exhibit parental care. The female coils around the egg clutch and periodically rotate it, till the eggs hatch. The mother caecilian does not take any food during the parental care period. The Beddomes Caecilian, Ichthyophis beddomei, is known to have 25 to 38 eggs in an egg clutch. Egg size ranges from 6 mm at the time of laying to 12 mm at the time of hatching. Eggs generally hatch in 60 to 90 days. A newly hatched one possesses 3 pairs of external pinnate gills [Videographed at Kalpetta, Wynad district, Kerala, by the scientists of WGRC/ZSI, Kozhikode].
