A chromosome-level genome assembly of a deep-sea starfish (Zoroaster cf. ophiactis) [PDF]
Understanding of adaptation and evolution of organisms in the deep sea requires more genomic resources. Zoroaster cf. ophiactis is a sea star in the family Zoroasteridae occurring exclusively in the deep sea.

A new zoroasterid asteroid from the Eocene of Seymour Island, Antarctica [PDF]
New, well-preserved fossil starfish material is recorded from the Eocene La Meseta Formation exposed in Seymour Island, Antarctica. The use of new technology (i.e., microCT) on several fragments enabled the visualization of new characters and the ...
