under-stones brittle star awaiting identification* updated Oct 08 Where seen? This miniscule brittle star is sometimes seen under stones on our Northern shores. Sometimes, many are seen gathered together under one stone. Features: Whole animal 1-2cm. Arms banded with short spines. Looks similar to the tiny brittle stars seen in sponges. They might indeed be the same kind of brittle star but living in different places. |
