Clione antarctica is a species of a pelagic marine gastropod mollusks in the family Clionidae.

Distribution

Distribution of Clione antarctica include Southern Hemisphere in polar waters of Antarctica.[1][2]

Description

Length: 4.2 cm.[citation needed]

Ecology

This species is an important component of polar ecosystems.

Prey:

Clione antarctica have large lipid storage up to 5% of its wet mass.[3] It can survive without food only from its lipid storage reserves for about six months.[3]

Clione antarctica lays eggs at spring.[3]

It is eaten itself by the medusa Diplulmaris antarctica.[4]

It defends itself from predators by synthesizing an ichthyodeterrent (= deterring fishes) compound, a previously unknown molecule, named pteroenone.[citation needed] It acts as guest for the hyperiid amphipod Hyperiella dilatata, which takes advantage of the protection offered.[citation needed]
