Information about the Coleman’s Nippled Star :
The Coleman’s Nippled star is native to the warm tropical waters of the Indo-Pacific. They grow to be about 5 inches long (13 cm) It is found on the ocean bottom, usually feeding on detritus. It is a member of the family Ophidiasteridae, which are family of sea stars with about 30 genera. Occurring both in the Indo-Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, ophidiasterids are greatest in diversity in the Indo-Pacific. Many of the genera in this family exhibit brilliant colors and patterns, which sometimes can be attributed to aposematism and crypsis to protect themselves from predators. The name of the family is taken from the genus Ophidiaster, whose limbs are slender, semitubular and serpentine.

Artist’s notes:
The Coleman’s Nippled Star was completed on 2.3.2014. As I add more star fish and sea stars to the image library in order to put a collage together of various species, I marvel more and more at the amazing diversity of the family of echinoderms. I have a Flickr friend named Mark Harris who does a great deal of diving, usually in the Indo-Pacific region, and his photo collection has a lot of amazing species of starfish and sea stars, including this beautiful species.
