Life habits

Like all other fissurellids, ''Diodora'' species are herbivores, and use the radula to scrape algae from rocks. An exception is ''D. apertura'', which grazes on sponges such as '' Hymeniacidon''. Water for respiration and excretion is drawn in under the edge of the shell and exits through the "keyhole" at or near the apex.
