title: [Sexual cycle of Cerastoderma glaucum Poiret, 1798 (Bivalvia, Eulamellibranchia, Cardiidae) in Lake Tunis and in the Bou Grara sea (Tunisia)].
abstract: The study of the sexual cycle of Cerastoderma glaucum points out the presence of a very short sexual rest period (from january to march) and of three spawning periods (from may to june, august to september, december to january). If autumn is warm (15 degree C), 80 to 90% of the winter stock is formed by mature individuals.
