Also common to all echinoderms is a remarkable water vascular system, serving as locomotion. Water is drawn into the system through a sieve plate on the upper surface and conveyed to the arms by a series of canals. Many echinoderms serve as hosts to a variety of symbiotic or parasitic organisms.

    Extractions: 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 much of anything. Keep in mind that "close" is a relative term. New York and Sydney are close compared to the distance between the earth and Jupiter. It is all a matter of context. In evolution, the context is a matter of many millions of years. Kingdom Animalia - they're animals Subkingdom Eumetazoa - echinoderms have organs Branch Bilateria - in their early early stages, they all have bilateral symmetry.

References Crown-of-thorns starfish ( Acanthaster planci Credits The echinoderms (or "spiny skins") are a diverse group of completely marine animals. They are known from the Cambrian to the Recent and are found in shallow marine waters as well as the deep abyssal plains. They have a soft body encased in a hard rigid shell or exoskeleton (called a test ) made of individual plates (or ossicles ) made up of numerous thin plates. Many echinoderms have spines covering their test (e.g. the sea urchin). This group includes such familiar sea-shore creatures as starfish and sea urchins, as well as a number of less known types, and a whole range of paleozoic forms that are no longer around. There are some 6000 recent species, distributed among five classes. But these are only a small fraction of the number and diversity of types that lived in past ages, especially during the Paleozoic era when the group was at its height.

    Extractions: Crawfordsville Indiana Crinoids Crinoids and Echinoderms The Echinodermata, (from the Greek meaning spiny skin), is a phylum containing some 13,000 extinct and 7,000 extant species. Living representatives are only found in marine environment, making the phylum the largest lacking terrestrial and fresh water forms. Echinoderms evolved from bilaterally symmetric animals exhibiting fivefold radial symmetry in portions of their body at some stage of life. This pentameral symmetry is readily apparent in familiar adult starfish and sand dollars. Other echinoderms both extant and extinct lack the five point morphology because it was lost somewhere during development (i.e., during ontogeny Echinoderms have a vascular system that carries water and which in some echinoderms end in suckered feet enabling the creature to grip and move objects. Reproduction in Echinoderms reproduction is usually via external fertilization through eggs and sperm discharged into the water, and the majority of echinoderms have several planktonic larval stages before reverting to a

    Extractions: Table of Contents ECHINODERMATA ( ECHINOIDEA ) Echinarachnius parma LIVING MATERIAL The common sand dollar is found in isolated areas on sandy bottoms below low tide level, and is obtained in abundance by dredging at West Barnstable on Cape Cod Bay, Mass. The sexes are separate, but it is impossible to distinguish the male from the female by superficial examination. The animals breed abundantly at Woods Hole, Mass., from at least the last week of March to the end of July; even in August, a limited amount of ripe gametes may be obtained (Bumpus, 1898a, 1898b; Mead, 1898). A. Care of Adults: The adults may be kept indefinitely in an aquarium provided with a layer of clean sand and a continuous supply of fresh sea water. They can be fed on kelp, mussels, and other marine plants and animals. B. Procuring Gametes: Tyler's method (1949) for procuring gametes is to inject isosmotic KCI (0.5 M) with a hypodermic syringe into the body cavity of the sand dollar, inserting the needle (25-27 gauge, 1/2- to 3/4-inch) through the mouth in a direction as nearly parallel as possible to the oral surface. A single injection of 0.5 cc. of 0.5 M KCI into an animal about 30 cc. in volume will induce shedding of virtually all the ripe eggs or sperm. For smaller animals, the dose should be proportionately smaller (0.5-0.2 cc.). Shedding starts within a few

Diese Seite auf Deutsch Top End 5 pages with over 300 photos of echinoderms (Echinodermata) There are 5 related classes in the phylum Echinodermata (the Latin name means "spiny-skinned"). For a detailed list with all classifications click here Echinoderms are characterized by radial symmetry, several arms (5 or more, mostly grouped 2 left - 1 middle - 2 right) radiating from a central body (= pentamerous). The body actually consists of five equal segments, each containing a duplicate set of various internal organs. They have no heart, brain, nor eyes, but some brittle stars seem to have light sensitive parts on their arms. Their mouth is situated on the underside and their anus on top (except feather stars, sea cucumbers and some urchins). Echinoderms have tentacle-like structures called tube feet with suction pads situated at their extremities. These tube feet are hydraulically controlled by a remarkable vascular system. This system supplies water through canals of small muscular tubes to the tube feet (= ambulacral feet). As the tube feet press against a moving object, water is withdrawn from them, resulting in a suction effect. When water returns to the canals, suction is released. The resulting locomotion is generally very slow.

Color of the test (shell) and spines of Sterechinus neumayeri is variable, from greenish- olive to dark purplish/violet or whitish; the test is more generally greenish- olive or green-gray . It is slow growing, reaching a maximum diameter of seven centimeters at forty years of age .

    Extractions: Echinodermata (Spiny-skinned animals) Echinoderms include well-known sea animals like the starfish (Asteroidea), brittle stars (Ophiuroidea), sea urchins and sand dollars (Echinoidea), sea cucumbers (Holothuroidea), and sea lilies (Crinoidea). Fossils of all these classes of echinoderms plus the extinct classes Blastoidea (no common name) and Edrioasteroidea (no common name) have been found in Kentucky. By far the most abundant are the crinoid and blastoid fossils; fossils from the other classes are relatively rare. Starfish (Asteroidea and Ophiuroidea) Sea lilies (Crinoidea) Blastoids, look like fossil hickory nuts (Blastoidea) Edrioasteroidea Edrioasteroidea (extinct) Edrioasteroides are an extinct group of echinoderms. The are usually disk shaped and lived attached to shells lying on the bottom of the sea. Although very rare, several have been found in Ordovician and Mississippian strata in Kentucky. Echinoidea (Sea Urchins, Sand Dollars) Echinoids are globe-shaped to disk-shaped echinoderms commonly covered with spines. They move about with their many tube feet on the sea bottom and eat algae. Their many spines are usually moveable. Echinoid fossils are common to rare from the Ordovician to the present. They have been found in the Ordovician through Pennsylvanian strata of Kentucky.
