Echinodermata Echinoderms are the closest relatives to Chordates. It may not seem so at first, but looking closely at embryological evidence, it is believed that chordates and echinoderms shared a common relative. This relative is believed to have been something along the lines of sea urchin - an orgasnism a bit larger than a golf ball with spines extending radially like the guy from Hellraiser. Interesting little creatures, they aren't especially intelligent. In fact, they don't do m ...

Echinoderms Phylum: Echinodermata Echinoderms have a few important aspects in common. They have bony ossicles in their body. They have a water-vascular system which pumps water through the madroporite. They also have small jaws that are supported by the water-vascular system. And they have tube feet which they use to attach to objects, for protection, as well as to obtain food. They have radial symmetry and most can regenerate lost limbs. The following classes are types of echinod ...

Invertebrates in the Plankton: Echinodermata The echinoderms include the familiar sea stars, brittle stars, and sea urchins, as well as the more enigmatic sea cucumbers and crinoids. All species are marine, and most live in benthic habitats. Many of the animals have a planktonic larval stage, some of which may live in the plankton for months before settling as adults. Echinoid larvae are among the smaller meroplankton, approximately 0.01-0.03 mm in length, and are relatively rare to find i ...

Phylum Echinodermata Brittle Stars, Sea Stars, Sea Urchins and Sea Cucumbers Echinoderms are common but often overlooked by divers and snorkelers, that is until one bumps into a spiny sea urchin or disturbs a sea cucumber that protests being handled by ejecting sticky white threads! Unlike the mollusks, this group has not been thoroughly reviewed and a few species can be difficult to identify without tedious examination of minute body parts. The group is very well-represented in deep water around the islands and unusual forms have been observed at times by scuba divers. Last update: 1/25/2005

Mollusks What are Mollusks? Mollusks are an amazingly diverse group of animals that live in a wide variety of environments. They can be found inhabiting trees (Figure 1: D), gardens, freshwater ponds and streams, estuaries, tidal pools, beaches, the continental shelf, and the deep ocean. Some mollusks are excellent swimmers, others crawl or burrow in mud and sand. Others remain stationary by attaching themselves to rocks, other shells, or plants; or by boring into hard surfaces, su ...

Mollusks The Phylum Mollusca is second in size only to the Phylum Arthropoda. Although members of this phylum are extremely diverse in structure, physiology, and habits, they are built on a uniform body plan consisting of a mantle, shell, and foot. The mantle secretes the shell and is sometimes involved in respiration. The shell provides support, protection, and secure attachments for muscles. The foot is fleshy and contains most of the viscera. Figure1. Representative of the Phylum M ...

Mollusks Mollusks are tasty. They are also fairly diverse. There are about 100,000 different extant species and 35,000 extinct ones. The reason why we can identify so many extinct species is because most mollusks have some sort of shell that mineralizes very easily. It leaves a great fossil. Mollusks have been dated to 600 MYA.

Some WEIRD ECHINODERMS of the CINCINNATIAN Compiled by Colin D. Sumrall Introduction Echinoderms are one of the most diverse groups of marine animals that today includes starfish and sea urchins.

William Warner, in his classic book Beautiful Swimmers, noted that crabs have often classified as unpleasant and bellicose animals.

According to Greek mythology, a giant crab bit the legendary Hercules on ...
