STAR FISH MANY VARIETIES FOR CRAFTING TO COLLECTING

STAR FISH belong to phylum Echinoderms (see conchological terms for complete definition). class: asteroid. Star fish are often referred to as sea stars



• The asteroid body has the form of a flattened star with arms (rays) generally numbering 5 or a multiple of 5. It is rare to see six or other number of arms. The arms join a disc like body.




• The upper surface of the arm has the spines and other Enchinoderm features. There is usually a red eye spot at the tip of each arm.




• The under side of the sea star has a mouth in the middle of the disc and there is an open groove from the mouth to the tip of the arm. Two or four rows of tube feet are found in each groove.




• Sea stars travel on the tube feet. The tube feet has suckers that reach ahead and attach to solid objects; thus pulling the sea star forward. The burrowing sea star lack suckers and only push the sea star forward.




• Sea stars feeding varies with the species. Most feed by extending their stomachs thru their mouth to envelope their food.




• Sea stars can regenerate arms. When an arm is damaged, it is shed at a point close to the central disc. (this is why the species you receive have arms of varying development). If the arm surface is cut slightly, it can usually heal over. In some species, the lost arm can generate a central disc; thus creating a new sea star.
