Red sea stars

Sea stars - still often called starfish - are one of the most fascinating creatures to live in our oceans. For starters, despite their name, they aren’t fish. They belong to a group of marine invertebrates called echinoderms. Sea stars are characterised by the radial symmetry of their bodies, which usually have multiple 'arms' extending from the central disc.
