Sea Urchin - Planktonic Origins
| Organism | : | Echinoderm Sea urchin |
|---|---|---|
| Species | : | Paracentrotus lividus |
| Description | : | Sea urchins are slow moving marine creatures grazing on algae covered rocks. They have colorful spines and a multitude of tube feet. Few people know that urchins go through a graceful larval stage - the pluteus - barely visible to the naked eye. The pluteus larvae drift with other planktonic creatures and are a favorite food for fish, shrimps and crustaceans.
