Astropectinidae
The Astropectinidae are a family of sea stars in the order Paxillosida. Usually, these starfish live on the seabed and immerse themselves in soft sediment such as sand and mud. They are not to be confused with species in the genus ''Archaster'', which share similar shape and life habits, but belong to the family Archasteridae (order Valvatida). Genera There are 27 genera in the family: * '' Astromesites'' Fisher, 1913 * '' Astropecten'' Gray, 1840 * ''Astropectinides'' Verrill, 1914 * '' Bathybiaster'' Danielssen & Koren, 1883 * '' Blakiaster'' Perrier, 1881 * ''Bollonaster'' McKnight, 1977 * '' Bunodaster'' Verrill, 1909 * ''Craspidaster'' Sladen, 1889 * ''Ctenophoraster'' Fisher, 1906 * ''Ctenopleura'' Fisher, 1913 * ''Dipsacaster'' Alcock, 1893 * ''Dytaster'' Sladen, 1889 * '' Koremaster'' Fisher, 1913 * '' Leptychaster'' E.A.

Echinoderms
An echinoderm () is any member of the phylum Echinodermata (). The adults are recognisable by their (usually five-point) radial symmetry, and include starfish, brittle stars, sea urchins, sand dollars, and sea cucumbers, as well as the sea lilies or "stone lilies". Adult echinoderms are found on the sea bed at every ocean depth, from the intertidal zone to the abyssal zone. The phylum contains about 7,000 living species, making it the second-largest grouping of deuterostomes, after the chordates. Echinoderms are the largest entirely marine phylum. The first definitive echinoderms appeared near the start of the Cambrian. The echinoderms are important both ecologically and geologically. Ecologically, there are few other groupings so abundant in the biotic desert of the deep sea, as well as shallower oceans. Most echinoderms are able to reproduce asexually and regenerate tissue, organs, and limbs; in some cases, they can undergo complete regeneration from a single lim ...
