Ophionereis reticulata (Echinodermata, Ophiuroidea) [PDF]
Iheringia. Série Zoologia, 2010 This study compared the arm regeneration frequencies in two different populations of Ophionereis reticulata (Say, 1825) in São Sebastião, Southeast Brazil and observed arm regeneration between age classes (juvenile and adults) and sexes (male and female). From the 1,170 individuals sampled, 1,089 (92.2%) showed signs of arm regeneration.
