Some species of oyster are hermaphrodites, developing both eggs and sperm. The eggs are fertilized within the body and are retained in the gills until larvae are formed, at which time they are released into the water. American bluepoint oysters in the Atlantic have separate sexes. Females discharge eggs into the water where sperm from male oysters fertilize them. The larvae develop within six hours, swim for about two or three weeks, and then settle on stones or shells. They mature by the end of the first year.
