Eggerelloides medius is a benthic foraminiferan, a single-celled marine organism constructing a multi-chambered agglutinated test from sediment particles. It inhabits fine-grained marine sediments in shallow to moderate depth coastal environments. Like other foraminifera, it feeds on detritus and bacteria and plays a role in benthic biogeochemical cycling, including organic matter remineralisation.
