Larval Development and Metamorphosis of Acanthaster planci (Asteroidea)
Nature, 1971LITTLE is known of the factors influencing survival during the planktonic phase of Acanthaster planci (Linnaeus), the crown of thorns starfish, apart from an observation of fish eating newly released eggs1. But it is not surprising that this phase has been suggested as the cause of the recent plague of the animal in the Pacific2–4, for large females ...

Is Acanthaster planci an r-strategist?
Nature, 1978THE debate over the cause of plagues of the crown-of-thorns starfish, Acanthaster planci, has been as long as the plagues themselves (for reviews see refs 1–3). Most recently, two lines of reasoning based on ecological concepts have been used to suggest that the causes of the population explosions should be sought in some abnormal event, and thus man ...

Predator regulation of Acanthaster planci
Journal of Theoretical Biology, 1987The Crown of Thorns starfish Acanthaster planci is present, though rare, on most Indo-Pacific coral reefs, but in the past 20 years outbreaks have occurred on many reefs. One theory that has been advanced to explain this behaviour is that populations are normally regulated by predation and that outbreaks result from a relaxation of predator pressure ...

Haemodynamic and haematologic effects of Acanthaster planci venom in dogs
Toxicon, 1994This study was designed to examine haemodynamic and haematologic effects of the crown-of-thorns starfish venom (Acanthaster planci venom: APV) in dogs. Severe systemic hypotension, thrombocytopenia and leukopenia were induced by APV (1.0 mg protein/kg i.v.), followed by gradual return to the baseline level within 60 min.

Nature, 1970
Although there have been many reports of the large scale destruction of Pacific coral reefs by the crown-of-thorns starfish, Acanthaster planci, little is known about the starfish's ecology and behaviour. We publish here reports of its population density in the Pacific Ocean, and studies of its locomotory and feeding behaviour in the laboratory.
