Interspecific differences in feeding selectivity shape isotopic niche structure of three ophiuroids in the Arctic Ocean [PDF]
, 2022 peer reviewedUnderstanding the mechanisms that support feeding interactions and species co-occurrence in regions subject to rapid environmental changes is becoming increasingly important to predict future trends in population dynamics.

Echinoderm Fauna of Kosrae, The Federation States of Micronesia [PDF]
Animal Systematics, Evolution and Diversity, 2013 Micronesia is an island nation located north of Papua New Guinea in the Pacific Ocean. A survey was executed on Kosrae, which is one of the four main islands of Micronesia, during January 23-30, 2011 and January 8-15, 2012. The echinoderms were collected

Global benthic biogeographical regions and macroecological drivers for ophiuroids [PDF]
, 2023 Delineating biogeographical regions can provide important insights into the processes shaping large-scale species distribution patterns. Here we aimed to 1) identify global marine benthic biogeographical regions for ophiuroids extending from shallow ...

Ophiuroids from the Middle Triassic (Muschelkalk) of Sadowa Góra, Jaworzno (southern Poland) [PDF]
, 2020 Ophiuroids belonging to Aspiduriella sp., Aspiduriella similis (Eck), and Arenorbis sp. are described from the Middle Triassic (Muschelkalk) strata of the Sadowa Góra Quarry (Jaworzno) in southern Poland. This is the only Polish location where three taxa

Swiss Journal of Palaeontology, 2023 Ophiuroids, also known as brittle stars, are an important component of modern marine benthos, yet their fossil record is still poorly understood. Here, we describe new finds of ophiuroids from the upper Sinemurian (Lower Jurassic) of Asturias, north-west

A Silurian ophiuroid with soft‐tissue preservation [PDF]
Papers in Palaeontology, 2021 AbstractMost Palaeozoic brittle stars lack the fused arm ossicles (vertebrae) that facilitate the remarkable mode of walking that characterizes living forms. Here we describe a stem ophiuroid from the Herefordshire Lagerstätte (Silurian, Wenlock Series), which is exceptional in preserving the body cavity uncompacted and the long tube feet.

Zoologia (Curitiba), 2011 Ophiomusium (Ophiolepididae) and Ophiomisidium (Ophiuridae) are similar, but differ in features such as size of the adult, number of disc dorsal plates, length of the arms, shape of the first ventral arm plates and number of the tentacle.

Scientia Marina, 1999 This study aims on a first comparison of the shallow water (< 550 m) ophiuroid fauna of the Magellan region and the high-Antarctic Weddell Sea. Five species are common to both the Magellan region (22 species) and the Weddell Sea (42 species).
