Life cycle
![](../I/Chilostoma_cingulatum_SEM_dart.jpg.webp)
The scanning electron microscope images show (above) the lateral view of the love dart, scale bar 500 μm (0.5 mm); and (below) a cross section of the dart, scale bar 50 μm.
The diameter of the egg of this species is 3.3 mm.[2]
These snails create and use love darts during mating.
