Summary

[edit]
Description

Dry and Dead, Satonda Island.

Linckia Laevigata, a.k.a Comet Sea Star, Blue Sea Star, or Blue Linckia. It is very intoleran of sudden changes in oxygen levels, salinity and pH of the water, thus, it should never be exposed to air while handling. It is also capable of regenerating a new starfish from almost any portion of its body that might break off. Lot of these dead starfish can be found in the shore of Satonda Island after storm or high tide. Probably drifted to shore.
