Basket Star (Astroba nuda) Coral

Clade: Echinodermata Depth: -1 to -20 m. Distribution : Red Sea to New Caledonia Environment : exposed reef formations, in strong currents Climate : warm waters

Notes : As representative species of the Brittle Stars class, the Basket Star is part of the Echinodermata phylum, which also encompasses other sea urchins. The strongly ramified branches are very flexible by their small branch vertebrae. During the day Astroba nuda hides itself in columns and chinks within the reef, while they spread around their arms at night to catch food at exposed places.
