Description :
Description: Ophiocoma echinata (Lamarck, 1816) - blunt-spined brittle star. Ophiuroids (brittle stars) have body plans similar to asteroids (starfish). Asteroids have arms that are generally thick-based and taper distally. Ophiuroids generally have slender, subcylindrical, snake-like arms that are easily detached. The feeding habits of ophiuroids varies from predation to scavenging to filter feeding to deposit feeding. Classification: Animalia, Echinodermata, Ophiuroidea, Ophiurida, Ophiocomidae Locality: southeastern Graham's Harbour, northeastern San Salvador Island, eastern Bahamas. Date: 22 March 1999, 16:49.
