Evo‐devo in the ophiuroid family Ophiocomidae
Invertebrate BiologyAbstractThe Ophiuroidea, the most diverse echinoderm class, exhibits an array of life history patterns and larval forms, the evolution of which is poorly understood. With a robust phylogeny available for the major family, the Ophiocomidae, we undertook an assessment of the evolution of development in these ophiuroids.

Luminescence in ophiuroids (Echinodermata) does not share a common nervous control in all species.
, 2002 Study of the control mechanisms of light emission in invertebrates shows the involvement of several neurotransmitters. In ophiuroids, only one species (Amphipholis squamata) has so far been characterized for luminescence control, which seems to be ...

Identification of two Ophiuroidea species in intertidal zone of Chabahar bay along Oman Sea coast
Majallah-i ̒Ilmī-i Shīlāt-i Īrān, 2016 Among the echinoderms, the Ophiuroidea comprise the most diverse class with more than 2,000 species. They occur in nearly any marine habitat, ranging from the poles to the equator and are distributed from the tidal zone down to several thousand meters of

Taphonomy of a Pliocene ophiuroid mass mortality lagerstätte in the Tirabuzón Formation, Baja California sur [PDF]
, 2009 Preservation of fully articulated ophiuroids (ophiuroid Lagerstätte) is rare due to rapid disarticulation of their endoskeletons. Recently, material from a mass mortality bed(s) of well preserved ophiuroids was found in the Pliocene Tirabuzón Formation ...

Extrinsic and intrinsic nervous control of bioluminescence in ophiuroids (Echinodermata)
, 2006 A diversity of organisms is endowed with the ability to emit light; this phenomenon is called bioluminescence and occurs mainly in marine organisms. Among echinoderms, some ophiuroid species (Echinodermata, Ophiuroidea) do possess this amazing capability
