Urosalpinx cinerea can live in salinities as low as 13 - 15â°. In populations of the Atlantic oyster drill collected from the James River, Virginia, mortality was observed when the salinity decreased to 9â° (Zachary and Haven 1973). When the salinity was increased the activity of the oyster drills also increased.
In order to find food, oyster drills use a long tube-like structure called a siphon. These siphons also draw water into the oyster drillsâ gills. Their gills filter out oxygen that is carried in the water. Where can you find them? Oyster drills live in oyster beds (colonies of oysters). They prefer the saltier water found in the middle and lower Bay. How do they behave? Oyster drills got their name because of the way they eat oysters and other shelled animals. They crawl about oyster beds, searching for food using their siphons. Once they sense that they have found a meal, they begin to drill a hole through their preyâs shell. First of all, they ooze a kind of acid on the shell. The acid softens up the hard shell. Then they use a special body part called a radula to drill away.
