    Asterinidae - Wikipedia

    The Asterinidae are a large family of sea stars in the order Valvatida. These are generally small sea stars, flattened dorsally and bearing very short arms, often giving a pentagonal shape in the body ;example: Asterians rubens (except in some species possessing more than five arms). The periphery of the body is thin … See more

    Most of the species are small and relatively cryptic: they are often found hidden under rocks or in crevices, for example. Several species have access to a fissiparous See more

    The analyses by Waters and colleagues (2004) included 37 species, while the present analysis of species with known life history data involved 28 species, 3 of which were not included in the earlier study. Within the Asteroidea, the Asterinidae presents a variety of fertilization strategies, larval forms, and developmental habitats.
    Further phylogenetic analyses and increased taxonomic sampling are needed to assess evolutionary pathways of life history change in the Asterinidae (Keever and others, in progress). As we assimilate more information for asterinid species, we are gaining a greater understanding of life history evolution in these sea stars.
    Life history data are available for 31 species and molecular data for 28 of these. These data were used to assess life history evolution and relationships among asterinid clades. Lecithotrophy is prevalent in Asterinidae, with at least 6 independent origins of this developmental mode.
