Haliclystid [Haliclystidae]
Description
Haliclystid sea stars are commonly seen as delicate, stalked or attached forms that look almost like miniature fans or frilled structures. Divers may find them anchored to hard surfaces in current-swept spots, where their body posture helps them capture food drifting in the water.
